Jabil Circuit

Jabil Circuit, Inc., designs and manufactures circuit boards and systems for original equipment manufacturers in the communications, personal computer, and automotive markets. The company has automated manufacturing facilities in the USA (Florida, Michigan, Idaho, and California), Scotland, Italy, Malaysia, China, and Mexico. So when Jabil had a 200,000 square foot office and manufacturing requirement in New England, it turned to its preferred provider, Signature Associates - ONCOR International.

Signature has been providing industrial real estate services to Jabil since 1982. Their first assignment was to move Jabil out of its original 16,000 square foot building into a 50,000 square foot facility in Madison Heights, Michigan. That transaction lead to eight others over the years; and Jabil's requirements in Boston seemed a natural for Signature.

We immediately contacted Meredith & Grew - ONCOR International to assist with the special requirements this transaction involved. Jabil wanted to open its first facility in the Boston area and, at the time, the market was extremely tight. After a thorough market search, they were able to locate an older, existing 500,000 square foot building which could be divided and meet Jabil's requirements. One of the obstacles was the tremendous amount of renovation needed to bring the building to satisfactory condition for the client. The brokers skillfully negotiated a significant tenant improvement package to modify the building. Jabil's needs were met and it was extremely pleased with final location and negotiated package. The facility opened within five months after the lease was signed. Jabil recently took another 300,000 sq. ft. in this building.
