ND Brick

Case Studies

ND Brick was acquired to serve a dual purpose: providing a strategic facility for Sheer Service’s expansion into the Northeast market while securing a high-return real estate investment. Sheer Service, an affiliated business of Rich Global, required a physical presence in New Jersey to support its continued growth beyond South Florida. Before purchasing ND Brick, Sheer Service initially leased other properties in the Northeast market to understand market dynamics. In the competitive 2021 market, securing a high-value asset at favorable financing terms was critical for long-term operational and investment success. Sheer Service is featured on our Rich Global Affiliated Businesses page. Check it out to learn more about how this company plays a key role in our portfolio.
