AMB Property Corporation(R) , a leading global developer and owner of industrial real estate, today announced it has leased a total of 862,000 square feet (80,100 square meters) in developments in the markets of Mexico City and Guadalajara.

"Since entering Mexico in 2002, AMB has established a top notch portfolio of more than 7 million square feet in five markets tied to global trade," said Gene Reilly, AMB's president, North America. "Demand for Class A facilities in key Mexico markets is demonstrated by this stream of leasing activity in Mexico City and Guadalajara. AMB has firmly established itself as a leading real estate provider to international and national customers requiring state-of-the-art facilities in Mexico."

Mexico City

AMB has leased more than 439,000 square feet (40,800 square meters) to two customers at AMB Tres Rios Industrial Park, Mexico City's largest master-planned industrial park currently comprising approximately 944,000 square feet (87,700 square meters). The Park is capable of supporting additional future development of up to 2.1 million square feet, and is located in the city's premier distribution submarket adjacent to the NAFTA highway.

AMB's existing facilities in San Martin Obispo Industrial Park--Mexico City's premier Class A industrial location--total 2.1 million square feet (198,300 square meters), and are now 100 percent leased to key customers. The newly completed AMB Agave Building 5 is 112,000 square feet (10,400 square meters), is now fully leased with a single tenant, and is expected to be contributed to the Mexico fund, a co-investment joint venture that invests in distribution facilities in targeted markets in Mexico. With an additional lease of 85,000 square feet (7,900 square meters), the 345,000 square foot (32,100 square meter) AMB Mesquite Distribution is now stabilized.

Guadalajara

AMB has leased 101,000 square feet (9,400 square meters) to two customers in AMB Arrayanes - Building 2, a 474,000 square foot (44,000 square meter) development located in the master-planned San Jorge Industrial Park in Guadalajara's largest industrial submarket.

"Our recent leasing activity with key customers in Mexico is indicative of the strength of our projects as well as the development capabilities of AMB," said Kim Snyder, AMB's managing director, Southwest Region. "These successes achieved with AMB's local partner G. Accion, and continued demand for space, bode very well for our newest Mexico start which also establishes our presence in Monterrey."

Monterrey

AMB has broken ground on a two-building development in Monterrey, totaling 340,000 square feet (31,600 square meters). AMB Agua Fria Industrial Park marks AMB's entry into Monterrey, and is comprised of land that can support up to 2 million square feet (181,200 square meters) of development. The site is centrally located in the strategic Apodaca submarket of Monterrey on the Miguel Aleman Highway and is near Monterrey International Airport.

AMB's Mexico portfolio is comprised of operating and development real estate in Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey, Queretaro and Tijuana -- a portfolio now totaling more than 7 million square feet (653,000 square meters).
