Posted July 16, 2019 1:00 am

GREEN OAKS - Avison Young has negotiated a 96,810-square foot lease on behalf of Biddeford Blankets at 13820 S. Business Center Drive in Green Oaks.

The heated blanket manufacturer is moving to Green Oak Business Center from a Mundelein location that it occupied for the last 15 years.

Biddeford Blankets provides heating blankets, heated mattress pads, and heated throws via e-commerce and major retailers. The company also develops and produces Microlife diagnostic equipment for use in home and health care facilities.

"The move to Green Oak Business Center will allow Microlife/Biddeford to continue to grow to meet market demand while also increasing efficiencies," says Larry Peckler, Director of Operations for the company.

Avison Young Principals Michael Fonda and John Hauser, who are based in the company's Chicago office, represented the tenant in the lease. The building owner, Colony Capital Inc., was represented in-house by Vice President Scott Cordes.
