Let’s talk about distribution facilities today. Those huge monolith structures in the center of no where, real estate properties that keep most of the countries supply chain moving. ProLogis is the leader of the industry.

ProLogis is the world’s largest owner, manager and developer of distribution facilities, with operations in 20 countries spanning three continents.

The company has $26.7 billion of assets owned, managed and under development, comprising 422 million square feet (39.2 million square meters) in 2,466 properties as of December 31, 2006. ProLogis’ customers include manufacturers, retailers, transportation companies, third-party logistics providers and other enterprises with large-scale distribution needs. Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, ProLogis employs more than 1,250 people worldwide.

So, it is heartening to note that they came out with their first “Corporate Sustainability Report” under the GRI initiative. They have incorporated a Green Mission that they call “straightforward” .

Our mission with regard to sustainability is straightforward: to be the leading global provider of sustainable distribution facilities and to create an optimal balance between shareholder value, the environment and corporate social responsibility.

To ProLogis, sustainability is a business approach that recognizes economic, environmental and social objectives. It defines who we are and how we operate. Check out their report and decide for yourself how “Green” is their mission.

What we liked about Bradley Corporation was the way they boldly put forth a “Green Mission Statement” when even the heavyweights are a little shy about “going green” through their mission.

Bradley is a leader in the plumbing industry . They are a member of the LEEDS and have a product line that they call “EarthSmart Products” . Although, we do not know about their environmental footprint yet, here is one smart company who understand the value of a “Green Mission Statement”

“Bradley is committed to the continuous improvement of our environmental management system and performance including resource conservation and pollution prevention.”

A very interesting Survey Conducted by Jones Lang LaSalle at the 2007 CoreNet Global Asia provides a very clear indication that Corporates are ready to pay more for “Green Buildings”. At this meeting of more than 300 realty professionals,

“of those surveyed, 93% of respondents expressed a notable increase in awareness regarding sustainable buildings over the
last three years, with 62% expressing that such growth in associated environmental, economic and social awareness had been significant.”
