Storage (IOS). Currently, the firm has a project pipeline of approximately 2 million square feet in various stages of

The Dedeaux Family’s national transportation and logistics platform, DART Warehouse Corp, allowed Brett to have
unique insights into logistics properties resulting in recognizing a need for modernized logistics facilities, such as
truck terminals and transloading facilities, which were being overlooked by many of the major industrial real estate
platforms in the region. Under his leadership, Dedeaux Properties has grown to become the largest owner/operator
of modern IOS and logistics properties in the region.
