Houston, Dec. 15, 2020 – Houston-based PSS Industrial Group, a leading value added distributor serving a diverse base of customers in the energy industry, has agreed to a new 200,824-square-foot industrial lease in Houston, JLL announced today.

Ella Logistics Center, developed and owned by Hines, the international real estate firm, and represented for leasing by Jim Foreman and Allison Bergmann of Cushman & Wakefield, is located 13 miles north of downtown Houston and minutes from Bush Intercontinental Airport.
