Hilco Real Estate Brokers Owatonna, Minnesota, Land Sale for Cabela's
NORTHBROOK, lll. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Hilco Real Estate, LLC has brokered the sale of 82 acres of excess land
surrounding the Cabela's store in Owatonna, MN. The land was part of a
larger parcel purchased by Cabela's in 1997. In August, 1998, the
company opened a 162,000 SF retail store and, since then, numerous
smaller parcels have been sold to retail, restaurant, hotel, and gas
station operators. This 82 acre sale represents virtually all remaining
excess land surrounding the original store.
Hilco Real Estate established a sealed bid deadline in December, 2009,
and closed the sale in February, 2010. "We implemented a process and
marketing strategy to identify all prospective buyers in the marketplace
and were able to field multiple offers from multiple buyers," said
Geoffrey Schnipper, Sr. Project Manager for Hilco Real Estate. "We are
pleased the process worked and were able to assist Cabela's in divesting
the excess land it had owned for over a decade," Mr. Schnipper continued.
Hilco continues to market a 96+ acre tract of land for Cabela's, located
along Interstate 65 in Greenwood, Indiana, just south of Indianapolis.
The site was purchased by Cabela's with the intention of opening a new
store, however in July, 2009, the company announced it would not move
ahead with the project. Prior to the decision, Cabela's had made a
substantial investment in site improvements.
