AMS Performance to expand, move to Batavia
BATAVIA - AMS Performance, a fast-growing racing parts distributor based in West Chicago, has purchased a Batavia site where it will expand the business.
The company has purchased 400-500 Raddant Road and 901 Swanson Drive. The three-unit building has 58,286 square feet of space and sits on 3.5 acres, said Elk Grove Village-based Brown Commercial Group, which negotiated the sale.
AMS is expanding into the building, which more than doubles the size of its current facility.
"AMS Performance has experienced significant growth in recent years and this new facility is well suited to accommodate that growth and allow for future expansion," said Mike Antonelli, a Brown Commercial Group partner who represented AMS in the transaction.
The seller was a private trust.
"AMS wanted to stay within close proximity of their current employee and customer base, but available buildings were limited, as the industrial vacancy rate is under 5%," Antonelli said.
