Avison Young, as exclusive advisor to the owner, is pleased to offer for sale 5585 E. Shelby Drive, a 98,949-square-foot freestanding distribution facility on 7.66 acres in the Southeast industrial submarket of Memphis, Tennessee. Developed by Weston Companies and occupied for more than two decades by a single consumer-products user, the building has been continuously maintained to FDA standards for the receipt, storage and fulfillment of nutritional products. The owner is consolidating distribution with a third-party logistics provider and will deliver the Property vacant, clean and ready for a new operator.

The facility pairs a 22’-clear, fully sprinklered warehouse with a 33,264-square-foot conditioned storage block finished with a ceiling grid at the clear height; separate receiving and shipping docks on two walls, each served by its own truck court off Distribution Drive; a two-story headquarters-quality office fronting Shelby Drive; a 400 kVA standby generator; and a TPO roof replaced in 2025. At roughly 30% site coverage on a 600’ × 559’ parcel, there is room to add loading, expand the building, or dedicate the ±2.7-acre rear yard to trailer or outdoor storage.
