Ingram Micro to Lease Center in Mira Loma

Ingram Micro Inc. in Santa Ana, the largest computer products distributor, has agreed to a $31-million, 10-year lease in Riverside County for what will be its largest distribution center.

The deal for an 800,000-square-foot facility, to be built in Mira Loma and leased from Pacific Newport Properties in Irvine, is believed to be one of the largest ever completed in Riverside County.

Ingram has an option to expand by an additional 500,000 square feet, said Rick John, a broker at Collins Commercial who, along with Kent Hindes, negotiated the deal for Pacific Newport.

Construction of the facility will begin soon on a 36-acre site in unincorporated Riverside County and should be completed late next year, John said. Ingram and Pacific Newport officials were unavailable for comment.
