Cushman & Wakefield today announced that it arranged, on behalf of Sysco, the purchase
of 199 Lowell Avenue, a 526,000 square foot industrial property situated on a 45.89 acre land
parcel in Central Islip, NY.
The deal is one of the largest industrial property sales transactions in Long Island

Sysco purchased the property from a private investor for an undisclosed price. The
company’s intended use for the facility has not yet been announced.
Cushman & Wakefield’s Frank Frizalone, executive director, National Industrial
Services, represented Sysco in the property purchase.
“Rarely does an opportunity of this magnitude become available in Long Island,
particularly in Western Suffolk County," said Mr. Frizalone, who is based in Cushman &
Wakefield’s Melville, NY office. “Sysco took advantage of what was an excellent
opportunity to acquire a large property and land parcel.”
Located in Western Suffolk County, 199 Lowell Avenue features 526,000 square feet of
industrial distribution space set on 45.89 acres. The property located is in close proximity to
