"The expansion of Lund's diversified real estate services into new markets around the world is a great example of Nebraska's expanding economy."

"Partnering with Lund is a great step forward for C&W which demonstrates our continued focus on growth in important markets throughout the Midwest and Central Region of the U.S.," added Shawn P. Mobley, President of Cushman & Wakefield's Central Region. "During the past 18 months, we have greatly bolstered our market position in Minneapolis, Chicago, and Dallas through creative joint ventures, recruiting, and acquisitions. Today's alliance with Lund is an important additional element of that growth."

John Lund, Chief Executive Officer, The Lund Company, added "Cushman and Wakefield's strengths align perfectly with our vision. Our existing clients can now do business anywhere in the world, relying on the same high level service they've known for the last 31 years. Our new clients will find that this alliance provides seamless expertise and service from Omaha to worldwide markets. "
