Raymore Commerce Center breaks ground, begins leasing

Brinkmann Constructors recently broke ground on a 565,000-SF spec building in Raymore Commerce Center, an industrial logistics park located on 136 acres in the I-49 corridor in Raymore, Mo.

Colliers International is representing the developer, VanTrust Real Estate, and is actively searching for tenants to fill the space - the first of three planned buildings expected to total nearly 2 million SF upon completion.

“We are honored to work with a well-known and respected group like VanTrust. Regardless of who ultimately leases this space, they will no doubt bring jobs to the community and open up the corridor to even further development – an economic win all the way around,,” said Ed Elder, president at Colliers International | Kansas City.

Raymore Commerce Center offers tenants a fixed 20-year tax abatement program, proximity to a superior labor pool in the Kansas City MSA and exceptional access to the surrounding logistics network via I-49. 

“What drew us to Raymore was the access, workforce, a great land-owner partner and City that is pro-development. VanTrust is thrilled to kickoff Raymore Commerce Center and looks forward to partnering with the City of Raymore for years to come,” said Grant Harrison, director at VanTrust.

Building I is expected for delivery Q3 2021. Building 2 will include 415,000± SF and Building 3 will total 1,040,000± SF. Delivery dates for the additional two buildings are TBA.

“Brinkmann is honored to work with the stellar team on this project. This build will bring great opportunity and access to the area,” said Mike Uhrig, Brinkmann Constructor project director.

Other partners involved in the Raymore Commerce Center project include architect, GBA and civil engineer, Olsson.
