TechCity leases 2,150 s/f to Globaltransol, LLC

Globaltransol, LLC, a freight forwarding company, has signed a five-year, 2,150 s/f lease to locate its headquarters office and warehouse space at TechCity, according to Dan Wieneke, president of TechCity Properties. Wieneke said, "We are delighted to welcome Globaltransol to TechCity, and we are working with their staff to provide them with the highest degree of support. We are very impressed with the company's 'can-do' approach to business because it mirrors our own philosophy. We want to help companies like Globaltransol grow and prosper here, and we'll go the extra mile to make that happen." Globaltransol specializes in expeditiously moving its customers' freight shipments from point-to-point anywhere on the planet. The company arranges the best possible ground, air or seaborne method of shipment, and then completes all the necessary paperwork and customs processes to ensure that the goods are delivered on time. The company also maintains a warehouse under contract at JFK International Airport. In this move, the firm has relocated and expanded from its former offices at 470 Aaron Ct. At TechCity, Globaltransol now occupies 1,500 s/f of office space and a 650 s/f freight staging area. Eric Gnakadja, president of Globaltransol, said, "We expanded our operations three times in the past 12 months, so it was time to look for a location that could accommodate our ever-increasing space requirements. TechCity is a place where we can grow quickly and easily." Globaltransol was launched five years ago, based on Gnakadja's prior business experience with other companies. At present, the company has six permanent employees, including Gnakadja and his wife, who serves as VP of the firm. For more information, visit: www.techcityny.com.
