BOSTON–JLL’s Retail Capital Markets team announced the sale of Hannaford Supermarket in Waltham, MA, for $18.2 million to an affiliate of The Grossman Companies.

As stated by JLL Executive Vice President, Nat Heald: “We were very pleased to be part of this unique sale. Phillips Edison and The Grossman Companies recognized an opportunity to accomplish their respective goals through this opportunistic transaction and the deal closed quickly and smoothly. We could not have found more professional partners to transact with.”

“Hannaford Plaza is a high-quality asset. After careful evaluation of the unsolicited offer from the Grossman family, we determined the transaction supported our strategic business plan. Both JLL and the Grossman’s were a pleasure to work with in what was a very smooth transaction,” said David Wik, Senior Vice President, Acquisitions and Dispositions at Phillips Edison.
