Olshan Properties purchased The Shoppes at Webb Gin from a joint venture between institutional investors advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management and Bayer Properties. Eric Zimmermann and Miles Theodore of Eastdil Secured represented the seller.

"Given our decades of experience in this region, The Shoppes at Webb Gin complements both our existing retail properties and our operational expertise extremely well. It is already one of the most popular retail centers in this trade area, with limited competition and a diverse collection of high quality offerings including grocery, apparel, specialty, discount, dining, as well as office space. We are excited to continue to strengthen the already impressive tenant roster at the property, most recently bolstered by the opening of Sprouts Farmers Market this month."
