CB Richard Ellis to Manage RaceTrac Petroleum Sale-Leaseback Program

RaceTrac Petroleum Inc., which owns and operates 530 gasoline and convenience stores in 12 states, has tapped CB Richard Ellis's Global Corporate Services unit to exclusively manage a sale/leaseback program for the company.

In 2008, RaceTrac generated in excess of $7.5 billion in annual revenues through its gas stations. Now it wants to capitalize on the real estate through sale/leaseback deals and then use the proceeds to fund its retail development pipeline and look for opportunities to acquire other stations. It is the first time the firm has offered an investment opportunity to the market.

CBRE's James Mitchell and Sean McConnell will be lead points of contact for the portfolio offering.

The first batch of stores being offered is a 16-store portfolio in Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas. The firms are hoping the portfolio fetches $42 million or more.

"The RaceTrac sale-leaseback investment couples newly-constructed retail product and single tenant net leases secured by a high credit regional fuel marketing brand," McConnell said in a statement. "Given the current turbulent climate, we are very bullish on the opportunity to steward such a stable retail investment opportunity to market."
