NAI Hunneman executive vice president Cathy Minnerly and vice president Ovar Osvold represented Pental Surfaces, while the landlord was represented by Ed Jarosz of JLL.

“Pental wanted to identify the ideal spot for their first east coast location. One that would accommodate storage and showroom needs and also strategically position the company to access multiple markets within the northeast,” said Minnerly. “Our team conducted an extensive analysis of the market and identified 50 Hampden Rd. It not only provides the space, but outstanding accessibility as it sits at the intersection of Interstates 95 & 495 connecting Pental with major destinations in all directions, including Boston, Providence, and Worcester.”

Pental Surfaces is the West Coast’s premier source for stone slab and tile. Founded in 1999 with just a few selections of granite slabs, the company has grown to become one of the largest importers and distributors on the West Coast. Pental now carries hundreds of tile and slab options in stock, including their own line of quartz slabs: PentalQuartz. Pental’s buying team attends the largest international tile expositions in search of the latest materials, and owner Peter Pental travels extensively to personally hand select a wide range of exotic natural stones.
