Last week, Daniel Rimada and Marco Alonso represented Hernandez Construction & Development at CIASF’s exclusive Networking Happy Hour. It was a great opportunity to connect with fellow professionals across the commercial and industrial real estate landscape.

As active supporters of industry organizations like CIASF, which brings together leaders in development, construction, brokerage, and investment, we value these moments to share ideas, strengthen partnerships, and stay engaged with the South Florida market.

We appreciate Commercial Industrial Association of South Florida (CIASF) for organizing another meaningful event, and we look forward to continuing the conversation at the next one.

Progress is moving quickly at Building C of the South Florida Distribution Center in Pembroke Pines, and last week our development team visited the site to review the details of construction delivery. Mike Browdy, President of Hernandez Construction, guided a tour for Navish Chawla, our CIO, and other team members, highlighting the precision and speed driving this Class A industrial project.

Spanning 281,145 square feet, Building C is part of a 754,722-square-foot, three-building logistics park, strategically located less than four miles from I-75 and just half a mile from the State Route 27 shipping corridor. Designed with 36-foot clear heights, 57 dock-high doors, and modern logistics features, it is being built to meet the high demands of South Florida’s growing distribution market.

Thank you to our project partners, Summit Real Estate Group and Dogwood Industrial Partners, for trusting Hernandez Construction as the general contractor, and to Cushman & Wakefield for leading leasing efforts.

With nearly 17 million square feet of Class A industrial space built, Hernandez Construction & Development continues to set benchmarks for quality, speed, and ex*****on in industrial construction.

Imagine a structure the size of 6 football fields rising in under 30 days.

On one of our projects, the Hernandez Construction & Development team poured footings, tilted over 106 panels, and completed the deck in less than a month.
That's the power of tilt wall construction when executed with precision and expertise - a method we consistently leverage for Class A industrial projects in Florida.

Beyond its impressive speed and cost-effectiveness, tilt wall construction offers significant sustainability advantages. Tilt wall panels often incorporate recycled steel reinforcement and aggregates, reducing material waste. They are designed for flexibility, allowing straightforward expansion, retrofitting, or the addition of new openings such as windows and doors. During renovation or demolition, panels can be crushed and repurposed as subbase material for sidewalks, parking areas, or roads, keeping resources in use and out of landfills.

With nearly 17 million square feet of Class A industrial property delivered, Hernandez Construction & Development consistently delivers large-scale facilities with precision and a commitment to the highest sustainability standards.

Breaking New Ground in Opa-Locka!

We are excited to announce the closing of a $17.6 million construction loan and the official groundbreaking of our new Class A self-storage facility in Opa-Locka, Miami MSA.

Reaching this milestone took persistence and teamwork. Our development team successfully navigated a complex entitlement and permitting process to bring this high-quality project to life. This project is anticipated to be completed by June 2026.

The four-story, 149,889-square-foot facility will feature:
• 1,146 climate-controlled units
• 109,600 net rentable square feet
• 59 parking spaces plus another 25 spaces for RV parking
• Management by CubeSmart, a leading national self-storage REIT

Located at a prominent signalized intersection along 27th Avenue and State Road 9, the site offers excellent visibility and access to a rapidly densifying residential corridor. The Opa-Locka area has seen an uptick in housing development in recent years, often with smaller units, which has increased demand for self-storage options among residents and small businesses alike.

Financing was provided by Andover Properties, with Cushman & Wakefield's Jeff Dybas serving as the exclusive broker on the transaction.

With over 23 years of industry experience, Hernandez Development is a national leader in the ground-up development of Class A self-storage facilities in high-barrier-to-entry markets.

Construction is being led by Hernandez Construction, the in-house general contracting arm of the firm, with nearly 17 million square feet of industrial and commercial space built across Florida.

Historic Win for Florida Businesses: Commercial Lease Tax ELIMINATED!

Florida is finally eliminating its unique commercial lease tax effective October 1, 2025 - marking the end of an era that began in 1969.

The Journey to Zero:
▲ 2018: Started at 6% (matching state sales tax)
▲ Multiple reductions over 6 years
▲ June 2024: Dropped to 2%
▲ October 2025: ELIMINATED entirely

This makes Florida the LAST state to abandon this business burden. Until now, Florida was the only state in the nation to impose a statewide sales tax on commercial leases - a significant competitive disadvantage that other states regularly used against us in business recruitment.

How We Compare:
While Florida eliminates this tax, some major cities still impose similar burdens:
• New York City: 3.9% Commercial Rent Tax (Manhattan)
• San Francisco: 3.5% Commercial Sales Tax
• Phoenix metro: 2.4-2.9% across various cities
• Hawaii: 4.166% general excise tax on commercial rent

What This Means:
• Immediate cost savings for ALL Florida businesses leasing space
• Enhanced competitiveness in business attraction/retention
• Elimination of administrative "sludge" that complicated operations
• More capital available for growth and job creation

Despite rate reductions, this tax generated $2.64 billion in 2024 - showing Florida's economic strength. Now that revenue stays in business pockets instead.

This legislative victory demonstrates Florida's unwavering commitment to maintaining America's most business-friendly environment.

What impact do you think this will have on Florida's economic growth?

This July 4th, we reflect on the freedom that built this country and continue building it today. Enjoy this special day with your families and friends from all of us at Hernandez Construction & Development.
Have a safe and joyful Independence Day!

Ever wonder how to build safe, high-performance industrial facilities on challenging sites? We make it work.

On a 33‑acre development, Hernandez Construction & Development successfully constructed a 671,000 SF, three-building Class A industrial warehouse by integrating sophisticated methane gas protection systems. Subsurface methane, common in sites with buried organic material, can pose serious hazards. Cutting-edge methane barrier membranes act as impermeable seals beneath slabs

Our team also installed Geo‑Vent venting networks and protective sand layers to safely redirect gas away from the buildings. Combined with deep dynamic compaction and reinforced foundations, this system ensures a dry, safe, and stable environment for tenants

Why It Matters:

Methane is combustible and odorless. Protection is critical for tenant safety.

These technologies meet regulatory standards and reduce long-term operational risks

With nearly 17 million SF of industrial space delivered, Hernandez Construction & Development brings unmatched technical acumen and ESG-conscious solutions turning complex or contaminated sites into reliable, high-performance assets.

We were proud to sponsor the Invest: Miami Summit and share insights from our CIO, Navish Chawla, on how industrial development is driving Miami's growth!

For over 23 years, Hernandez has delivered 17 M+ sq ft of commercial and industrial space across Florida, including recent Class A logistics and self-storage facilities in Tri-County. We're committed to supporting the region's expansion.

As Navish highlighted, "Miami is one of the few markets where speculative industrial development thrives. What truly excites us is the rise of middle-market businesses – local operators, logistics firms, and entrepreneurs – who are now the backbone of Miami’s industrial demand. We’re proud to help build spaces where these businesses can grow and thrive.”

A big thank you to for the opportunity to support this milestone event. We look forward to continuing our work delivering best-in-class industrial spaces across South Florida!

From Landfill to Landmark: Witnessing the Impossible in South Florida.

What do you do with 100 acres of previously unusable land? At Hernandez Construction, we transform it into one of South Florida's most advanced industrial developments.

We're incredibly proud to have led the construction on this monumental project, turning a former municipal dump into a state-of-the-art, 1.5 million SF high-performance warehouse space. This wasn't just construction; it was a complete environmental and engineering triumph.

Our innovative approach included:

- Environmental Remediation: Expertly relocating buried waste and capping with clean fill.
- Ground Stabilization: Implementing deep dynamic compaction and CMC piles for robust structural support.
- Advanced Infrastructure: Integrating gas management systems with geo-vent layers and sand protection, plus geo-grid infrastructure for superior paving and loading docks.
- This transformation is more than a technical achievement; it's a testament to sustainable redevelopment.

The project proudly holds LEED v4 Certification and earned the prestigious SFBJ Industrial Project of the Year Award. It truly showcases what's possible when innovation meets relentless ex*****on.

With 17 million SF of industrial construction experience across Florida, Hernandez Construction is renowned for tackling and solving the most complex site challenges.
