Crow Holdings at 6A
BURLINGTON, N.J. (May 8, 2025) – GMB North America, a subsidiary of global auto parts manufacturer GMB, will relocate its headquarters and North America distribution operation from Middlesex County to Crow Holdings at 6A. The 156,000-square-foot lease signing comes as Crow Holdings Development puts the finishing touches on the new, 294,000-square-foot, Class A industrial building at 1804 River Road in Burlington.
Newmark’s Kyle Eaton and Rob Loderstedt represented GMB North America in the transaction. In operation since 1943, Japan-based GMB is one of the largest global OE and aftermarket automotive components manufacturers. Cushman & Wakefield’s Jules Nissim and Kimberly Bach with NAI Mertz’s Scott Mertz and Theresa Amato serve as leasing agents for Crow Holdings at 6A. The team is actively marketing the balance of the property, which is ready for occupancy.
Perfectly suited for a variety of uses, from wide-scale to last-mile distribution, Crow Holdings at 6A features every Class A industrial design feature. The building is poised to earn LEED certification, reflecting Crow Holdings Development’s advocacy for green building and design sustainability strategies. The firm’s Brad Vander Vliet and Connor Jaeger led this distinctive development project.
“We welcome GMB North America to Crow Holdings at 6A; the GMB and Newmark teams have been a pleasure to work with through the lease process,” said Crow Holdings Development’s Clark Machemer, senior managing director. “Our new tenant shares our commitment to environmental citizenship, which – combined with the property’s outstanding location – made it a clear choice for their evolving space needs.”
Crow Holdings at Exit 6A offers proximity to key ground transportation arteries, including the New Jersey and Pennsylvania turnpikes. The Keystone Industrial Port Complex is less than 30 minutes away; Philadelphia Airport, the Ports of Camden and Philadelphia are all within a 45-minute drive; and Newark Liberty International Airport and the Port of New York/New Jersey can be reached within one hour.

The firm has introduced more than 4.2 million square feet of new industrial inventory since 2020 and currently has 1 million square feet of construction in progress across New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.
