EmitenTrust.com Institutional-Quality Industrial Campus Expands Firm's Presence in One of the Southeast's Strongest Logistics Markets

BOSTON and RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rockpoint, a Boston-based real estate private equity firm, and Rockpoint Industrial, an operating partner exclusive to Rockpoint, today announced the acquisition of Richmond Trade Center, a 1.03-million square foot, five-building class A industrial campus in Chester, Virginia. Rockhill, Rockpoint's property services affiliate, will manage and operate the property. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Developed in 2015, Richmond Trade Center is situated on approximately 119 acres and comprises four cross-dock warehouse buildings and one light industrial building. The campus is located 18 miles south of downtown Richmond, two miles from Interstate 295 and six miles from Interstate 95, providing access to a population base of more than 23 million people within a 200-mile radius. The property features modern specifications, exceptional circulation and flexible building layouts that can accommodate a broad range of industrial users.

"Richmond Trade Center gives us a portfolio of functional, high-quality industrial buildings in an attractive park setting to serve Richmond's growing and diverse tenant base," said Ben Harris, Head of Rockpoint Industrial. "Strategically located on I-95 between Raleigh-Durham and Northern Virginia, Richmond continues to be one of the Southeast's strongest industrial markets benefitting from accelerating investment in advanced manufacturing, data centers, fintech, health-tech, and related sectors."

"Our industrial strategy focuses on acquiring high-quality industrial assets in supply-constrained growth markets where we see durable tenant demand and multiple paths to creating value," said Jason Chiverton, Senior Managing Director at Rockpoint. "Our acquisition of Richmond Trade Center reinforces the firm's conviction that well-located industrial assets provide attractive long-term investment opportunities."

Rockpoint has invested in more than 18 million square feet of industrial space since 2020, including recent acquisitions in the Richmond, Raleigh-Durham, and Charlotte markets.
