First National Realty Partners Purchases South Carolina Retail Center

SUMTER, S.C., April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- First National Realty Partners (FNRP), a leading national private equity firm specializing in commercial real estate, closed on the acquisition of Sumter Square, a 66,765-square-foot shopping center in Sumter, South Carolina. This strategic acquisition marks FNRP's expansion into South Carolina and brings its operating footprint to 25 states.

"We are proud to add Sumter Square to our Sun Belt portfolio," said Matt Annibale, vice president of acquisitions. "Sumter Square is a market-dominant asset with a seasoned existing tenancy, plus the opportunity to add value through additional leasing."

Sumter Square is anchored by a 39,365-square-foot Piggly Wiggly, an operator at the center since 1992. According to RetailStat, the Sumter Square location is one of the chain's top-performing stores in South Carolina based on customer foot traffic. The center features several other daily-needs tenants.

"Sumter Square boasts a high-performing tenant base that aligns perfectly with our necessity-based investment approach," commented Annibale. "The center also benefits from its location on a primary east-west corridor near national retailers including Walmart and Lowe's Home Improvement."

The center is located in a regional retail trade area 40 miles outside Columbia, South Carolina. It benefits from its close proximity to Shaw Air Force Base, the largest employer in Sumter. Within a five-mile radius, the population exceeds 60,000 people with average household incomes of $80,000.

David Robinov of Ackman-Ziff represented the seller in the transaction.
