A one-acre site at 778 Gold St. in Manchester has been sold for $1.051 million to Holloway Mercedes.
The property, which includes a 6,300-square-foot industrial facility, previously was leased to Penske Truck. The building will become a sales and repair facility for Holloway’s Mercedes Trucks. Currently Mercedes’ Trucks share a lot with Holloway Fiat and, due to increasing customer demand, required a separate facility to support further growth, the company said.
The site is directly across from the Walmart Superstore currently under construction on Gold Street. Walmart is building a 177,525-square-foot store.
“The building was not on the market for very long before we had several qualified offers competing on price,” said Johnson. “We advised the owners to have a call for offers and the winning offer came in at more than $166 per square foot, which exceeded the seller’s expectations.”

For many business owners, building wealth is closely tied to the success of the company. But as revenue grows and priorities shift, it can be difficult to know how much cash to keep available, how much to reinvest and when to begin planning for longer-term goals.
Succession planning for your business goes beyond naming the next leader. It involves preserving continuity for your employees and customers, as well as supporting the company’s long-term success.
