MARKET KNOWLEDGE
MERICLE OVERVIEW
Mericle Commercial Real Estate Services has developed more investment grade industrial, flex, and office space than any developer in the history of Northeastern Pennsylvania.
THE MERICLE DIFFERENCE SINGLE SOURCE Mericle is a true master builder, and our employees take responsibility for all phases of your project, from site selection, to design, to excavation, to construction, to fit-out, to property management. In short, we do it all. This unique corporate structure keeps your stress level to a minimum and ensures that your project will be completed on time and on budget.
Our executive team and the vast majority of our approximately 250 employees are natives of this region. Six of our executives have backgrounds in local economic development and can offer you guidance on incentive financing, employee recruitment, job training, family relocation, community contacts, and much more. We also have strong relationships with local municipalities, permitting agencies, utility companies, and suppliers. This depth of local experience ensures that we complete all aspects of your project smoothly and without delay.
SPEED Mericle will complete your project faster than competing developers. Our large team of excavation employees work year-round preparing ReadyToGo!™ Sites. This gives us a great inventory of sites that have already been planned, permitted, subdivided, cleared, graded, and compacted. In addition, because Butler systems can be erected quickly and without expensive on-site modifications, we’ll cut your construction time by as much as 30% compared to the methods used by competing developers.
AVAILABLE SPACE We are always building speculative industrial, office, flex, and medical buildings on our ReadyToGo!™ Sites. As such, we have far more existing space available than any other developer in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Whether you need just a few thousand square feet or one million square feet, we will very likely have a property that works for you.
VALUE By utilizing the master builder concept, we are able to cut out unnecessary profit centers and provide you with quality, investment-grade real estate at a very competitive price. Plus, Mericle is the authorized Butler Builder® for Northeastern Pennsylvania. This close association with Butler Manufacturing™ Company, the largest manufacturer of pre-engineered building systems in the United States, means we are able to offer you an unmatched level of innovation and flexibility. Our in-house design and engineering teams include some of the industry’s most experienced professionals in dealing with Butler systems. Every material, coating, part, and process is tested to ensure strict compliance with exact Butler standards.

TENANT TESTIMONIALS “In 1930, our grandfather Benjamin Cohen opened a small dental depot in Downtown Wilkes-Barre. Since then, Benco Dental has become the nation’s largest independent dental distributor, with operations in 35 states. Key to our growth has been the excellent and dedicated team of Benco associates who deliver success, smile after smile, to thousands of dental customers every day. When we outgrew our previous facility, the quality and loyalty of our people made it an easy decision to stay and invest right here in Northeastern PA.” Charles Cohen & Richard Cohen President & Senior Vice President Benco Dental Supply Co., Inc. Jenkins Township, PA
“It’s almost like Northeast PA defines what work ethic is. People come to work with an eagerness and a willingness to get the job done.” John Rhodes, Senior Executive Moran, Stahl, and Boyer Lakewood Ranch, FL
“I have been a manager in varying industries now for over 35 years. I have had the ability to establish new facilities and have had first hand involvement with varying work forces in 6 different states. During this time the work ethic varied from state to state and industry to industry. I can honestly say that coming back to Pennsylvania and managing a facility where the employees care about their jobs, have strong feelings of ownership of their company, and the motivation level to exceed is exciting and beneficial to our facility and company. I have not encountered this work ethic in many of the locations I have managed and lived in. Northeast PA is a company’s best found option for exceeding their expectations.”
“Even though we own and operate 73 retail stores that cover a 150-mile radius from Pennsylvania to New Jersey and upstate New York… I can tell you that the very best people we have working for us can be found right here in Northeastern PA. In this business, we live for the holiday seasons. That means we have no choice but to meet our commitments. And our employees do everything to make sure that happens – year after year. We just have terrific people.”
“We have a great workforce. We have capable people who are passionate about achieving their goals. We are in a low-cost area, yet we have people with the skills you might think you would find only in a high-cost area. Everything in Northeast PA is just right. It’s the Goldilocks theory of doing business.” Scott Meuser Chairman & CEO Pride Mobility Products Corp. Exeter, PA
David W. Hawk Chairman of the Board, Director of Research & Development Gertrude Hawk Chocolates Pittston, PA
Bill Welliver Facility Manager Telerx Wilkes-Barre, PA

SPEED Mericle will complete your project faster than competing developers. Our large team of excavation employees work year-round preparing ReadyToGo!™ Sites. This gives us a great inventory of sites that have already been planned, permitted, subdivided, cleared, graded, and compacted. In addition, because Butler systems can be erected quickly and without expensive on-site modifications, we’ll cut your construction time by as much as 30% compared to the methods used by competing developers.
AVAILABLE SPACE We are always building speculative industrial, office, flex, and medical buildings on our ReadyToGo!™ Sites. As such, we have far more existing space available than any other developer in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Whether you need just a few thousand square feet or one million square feet, we will very likely have a property that works for you.
VALUE By utilizing the master builder concept, we are able to cut out unnecessary profit centers and provide you with quality, investment-grade real estate at a very competitive price. Plus, Mericle is the authorized Butler Builder® for Northeastern Pennsylvania. This close association with Butler Manufacturing™ Company, the largest manufacturer of pre-engineered building systems in the United States, means we are able to offer you an unmatched level of innovation and flexibility. Our in-house design and engineering teams include some of the industry’s most experienced professionals in dealing with Butler systems. Every material, coating, part, and process is tested to ensure strict compliance with exact Butler standards.

TENANT TESTIMONIALS “In 1930, our grandfather Benjamin Cohen opened a small dental depot in Downtown Wilkes-Barre. Since then, Benco Dental has become the nation’s largest independent dental distributor, with operations in 35 states. Key to our growth has been the excellent and dedicated team of Benco associates who deliver success, smile after smile, to thousands of dental customers every day. When we outgrew our previous facility, the quality and loyalty of our people made it an easy decision to stay and invest right here in Northeastern PA.” Charles Cohen & Richard Cohen President & Senior Vice President Benco Dental Supply Co., Inc. Jenkins Township, PA
“It’s almost like Northeast PA defines what work ethic is. People come to work with an eagerness and a willingness to get the job done.” John Rhodes, Senior Executive Moran, Stahl, and Boyer Lakewood Ranch, FL
“I have been a manager in varying industries now for over 35 years. I have had the ability to establish new facilities and have had first hand involvement with varying work forces in 6 different states. During this time the work ethic varied from state to state and industry to industry. I can honestly say that coming back to Pennsylvania and managing a facility where the employees care about their jobs, have strong feelings of ownership of their company, and the motivation level to exceed is exciting and beneficial to our facility and company. I have not encountered this work ethic in many of the locations I have managed and lived in. Northeast PA is a company’s best found option for exceeding their expectations.”
“Even though we own and operate 73 retail stores that cover a 150-mile radius from Pennsylvania to New Jersey and upstate New York… I can tell you that the very best people we have working for us can be found right here in Northeastern PA. In this business, we live for the holiday seasons. That means we have no choice but to meet our commitments. And our employees do everything to make sure that happens – year after year. We just have terrific people.”
“We have a great workforce. We have capable people who are passionate about achieving their goals. We are in a low-cost area, yet we have people with the skills you might think you would find only in a high-cost area. Everything in Northeast PA is just right. It’s the Goldilocks theory of doing business.” Scott Meuser Chairman & CEO Pride Mobility Products Corp. Exeter, PA
David W. Hawk Chairman of the Board, Director of Research & Development Gertrude Hawk Chocolates Pittston, PA
Bill Welliver Facility Manager Telerx Wilkes-Barre, PA
