Hawaii-Based Group Buys Another Denver Metro Industrial Property: The Denver Deal Sheet
A Hawaii-based family ownership group that recently purchased an industrial building in Littleton made another Denver metro buy.
Kapuahelani bought a 29,700 SF light industrial building with about 1.5 acres of secured outdoor storage for $9.8M. The property at 7950 Miller Drive in Frederick is located near Interstate 25, about 28 miles north of Denver.
Seller Bear Peak Development, a Boulder-based real estate developer, acquired the vacant 4-acre site in 2022 and developed the multitenant industrial building.
The property is leased to Millennium, a national distributor of fiber-optic broadband products, and Mistras Group, a publicly traded company that offers asset protection and industrial services.
