Provident Industrial Launches Wayside Distribution Center



Provident Industrial, a division of Provident based in Dallas, has made a notable stride in its strategic growth with the recent acquisition of the Wayside Distribution Center in Houston, Texas. This landmark deal, completed on November 12, 2025, marks a significant partnership with Inclenberg Investments. Together, they are embarking on their second joint venture, contributing to a combined total of 320,000 square feet of Class A institutional developments.

The Wayside Distribution Center is not just another facility; it has been meticulously designed to cater to modern logistics and distribution needs. Situated on a sprawling 10.25 acres along Schurmier Road in Houston's vibrant South submarket, the center encompasses 157,300 square feet of industrial space. Key features of the facility include:
  • - A front-load configuration that ensures efficient logistics handling.
  • - A substantial height of 32 feet under the clear span, providing ample space for diverse inventory.
  • - A total of 29 dock doors and 2 ramps, facilitating swift loading and unloading processes.
  • - Typical column spacing measuring 50’ x 52’, promoting flexibility in layout.
  • - 60-foot speed bays designed for high-productivity capabilities.
  • - State-of-the-art ESFR sprinklers ensuring fire safety compliance.
  • - Adequate power supply with a 3-phase 480V, 1,600-amp setup.
  • - A fully fenced perimeter with controlled access to enhance security, as well as 114 auto parking spaces for operational efficiency.

According to Christen Vestal, the Director of Provident Industrial's Houston Office, "The site is strategically positioned within Houston's core logistics network, purpose-built for today's distribution and logistics operators. Our facility provides immediate access to labor, transportation corridors, and major commercial hubs, making it an ideal opportunity for future owners."

The center's location enhances its connectivity, being just minutes away from significant transportation routes including Beltway 8, Highway 288, and I-610. Additionally, its proximity to major demand drivers is impressive:
  • - 6 miles from Hobby Airport
  • - 17 miles from Houston's Central Business District
  • - 32 miles from the Port of Houston
  • - 35 miles from George Bush Intercontinental Airport

Notably, the surrounding area boasts a robust labor pool, with over 1.6 million workers available within a 20-mile radius, ensuring that future tenants have easy access to potential employees.

Provident Industrial is on a significant growth trajectory, reflecting its expansion endeavors across the United States. With over 8.2 million square feet of industrial space currently under construction or in the pipeline across states such as Texas, Arizona, and the Carolinas, the company is positioning itself as a key player in the real estate market.
