Executive Summary — Compact Powerhouse in the Logistics Core

A Strategic, Small-Bay Jewel in DFW’s Great Southwest Corridor

1207 Farmers Road is a 40,670 SF Class A industrial facility, delivered in 2024, designed to bring modern, flexible warehouse solutions to a market that thrives on logistics excellence. Positioned on 3.39 acres with direct ingress/egress to SH-161 (President George Bush Turnpike) and immediate reach to DFW International Airport, this asset offers a rare small-format Class A play in the largest industrial submarket in North Texas.

Featuring 24’ clear heights, 16 dock-high doors, 1 drive-in, and ±1,500 SF of spec office (modifications available), the building suits a wide range of tenants, from regional distribution users to service providers needing air freight proximity and secure outdoor storage. For owner-users, divisibility down to 13,000–20,000 SF makes this an adaptable home base. For investors, it’s the type of bite-sized but institutional-quality product that attracts a premium rent profile in a land-constrained corridor.

The Grand Prairie & GSW Industrial Advantage

Grand Prairie sits at the logistical bullseye of Dallas-Fort Worth, within the Upper Great Southwest (GSW) Industrial District — a corridor with more than 80 million SF of industrial product and home to some of the region’s most high-profile logistics, aerospace, and e-commerce players.

• Location Strength: Equidistant to Dallas and Fort Worth, with immediate proximity to DFW International Airport (10 minutes) and direct access to I-30, I-20, SH-161, SH-360, and Loop 12.
• Tenant Profile: FedEx, UPS, Ryder, Amazon, and Lockheed Martin all anchor nearby facilities. GSW is also home to e-commerce and third-party logistics (3PL) giants that prize same-day reach across the 8-million-strong DFW population.
• Market Dynamics: Vacancy rates in GSW typically hover in the 3–5% range, reflecting persistent demand and limited new supply in the small-to-mid-bay range. Institutional developers like Prologis, Clarion Partners, and Hillwood continue to expand holdings here.

Industrial Market Review in GSW

The corridor’s momentum is visible in recent headline moves:

• Amazon: Recently expanded its GSW footprint with two new distribution centers in the 200,000–500,000 SF range, reinforcing demand for air cargo and last-mile logistics in the submarket.
• FedEx Ground: Signed a lease for 250,000+ SF in GSW to enhance parcel throughput directly tied to DFW Airport demand.
• Prologis Acquisitions: Prologis has been on a buying spree in GSW, acquiring multiple Class A assets between 100,000–300,000 SF in 2024–2025, signaling institutional appetite for smaller high-function facilities.
• Clarion Partners Development: Broke ground on a 400,000 SF Class A spec facility in Grand Prairie, just south of I-30, underscoring sustained investor confidence.
• E-commerce & 3PLs: New leases signed in 2025 by Geodis Logistics, DHL, and Cainiao (Alibaba’s logistics arm) collectively absorbed more than 1 million SF in the GSW corridor.

Takeaway: Smaller, flexible Class A assets like 1207 Farmers Road are in short supply but high demand, often leased by firms needing high dock counts and proximity to both regional highways and DFW Airport.

Property Highlights

• 40,670 SF Class A industrial building (delivered 2024)
• 3.39-acre site with light industrial zoning
• 24’ clear ceiling height
• 16 dock-high doors + 1 drive-in
• ±1,500 SF of spec office (modifications available)
• Divisible to 13,000–20,000 SF — flexible for multi-tenant or owner-user configuration
• 1.52/1,000 SF parking ratio with room for secure/gated outside storage
• Strategic proximity: SH-161 frontage, minutes to DFW International Airport

Strategic Angle

This property represents the ideal market entry or expansion play for users who need DFW-wide reach with the agility of a smaller-format building. In the GSW submarket, small-to-mid-sized spaces are increasingly rare, and new deliveries under 100,000 SF are nearly nonexistent. That scarcity creates outsized value.

For an owner-user, this is an efficient, adaptable base in one of the tightest and most sought-after logistics corridors in the nation. For an investor, it’s a plug-and-play institutional-quality asset at a scale that allows for leasing velocity, tenant diversification, and higher-than-market rent resiliency.

The Bottom Line

1207 Farmers Road isn’t just another warehouse — it’s a compact but powerful logistics engine. Sitting at the crossroads of Grand Prairie’s infrastructure-rich industrial corridor, the property is strategically positioned to benefit from the continued growth of DFW’s e-commerce, 3PL, and aerospace ecosystem.

This is a rare opportunity to secure Class A product in the core of GSW — whether you’re an owner-operator seeking strategic positioning or an investor hunting for institutional upside.
