The arrangement allows PriceSmart to enter a new lease to occupy a portion of KWL's 300,000 square foot, Integrated Modular Logistics Complex at Ashenheim Road.
The first phase of the complex is under construction, and set for completion in the first quarter of 2024.
PriceSmart will have access to the facility at the end of 2023 to complete its build-out.
