History

FOCUSED ON THE LAST MILE SINCE OUR INCEPTION

NorthBridge was founded in 2014 as a private equity real estate firm investing in small-to-mid-sized last-mile infill logistics assets. We saw an opportunity others may have overlooked: markets with high demand, limited land, and fragmented ownership. We’ve spent the last decade building a platform to acquire, modernize, and operate these industrial assets.  

With $3 billion in assets under management, we’ve scaled by intentionally staying close to our tenants, submarkets, and investors. Today, our vertically integrated platform manages 13.2 million square feet across 12 states. 

As we grow, we’ve stayed true to the approach built over more than a decade: hands-on operations locked in on creating value in the most critical stretch of the supply chain.
