MISSISSAUGA, ON – NOVEMBER 2, 2021 – NYX Capital Corp. and Bluebird Self Storage have acquired 2 acres of industrial land to develop a new self-storage building.
Located in southwest Mississauga on Platinum Drive near the intersection of Ninth Line and Eglinton Avenue W, the property is part of the new Erin Mills Business Park. The site is surrounded by an established residential community that has an underserved market and high demand for self-storage.
Purchase price and seller have not been disclosed.
Said NYX Capital Corp. CEO Yashar Fatehi, “We are delighted to acquire another self-storage development site in the GTA, in partnership with Bluebird. We are always on the hunt for development sites; however, in recent years, finding suitable sites in the GTA has become challenging. We were working on this specific property two years ago and had to walk away due to some obstacles. But we kept in touch with the owners and jumped back in once we knew we could address the problems and it turned out to be the right property for us. Our NYX Capital team is nimble and can act fast on tight timelines and handle these types of complicated sites. This makes us a preferred purchaser compared to other larger players in the market.”
Bluebird Self Storage Managing Principal, Reade DeCurtins said, “For several years, we have been patiently looking for the right location in this western Mississauga sub-market, which combines a dense population base and very high-barriers-to-entry for future self-storage development. We expect this location to be quite busy.”
