Mazzon Industries reaches uncharted milestone of acquiring + 10 million SF of commercial real estate asset service contracts within 10 months

Mazzon Industries reaches uncharted milestone of acquiring + 10 million SF of commercial real estate asset service contracts within 10 months

    SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA (Nov. 29, 2023) – One of the hardest parts of playing chess is predicting your opponent’s next move. For the past 10 months, many in the market are still trying to figure out Daniel Mazzon’s first move.

If the competition continues to make the same move time and time again, it’s simple to develop a strategy to not only win, but no longer make them an opponent.

“Maybe, while they are lost in the fog making the status quo move, you could change the game so the next time they step to the table, they won’t know how to play. I’m not here to hand out the best cookies. I’m here to deliver building ownership and management the solutions to save time, increase occupancy, and produce a cash flow operation,” Mazzon said.

Since founding Mazzon Industries in late January, Mazzon has acquired more than 10 million square feet of service contracts at commercial real estate assets across the Valley. This has vaulted him as the No. 1 producer of vendor contract sales in Arizona.

The Mazzon Industries portfolio currently comprises 40 percent office, 35 percent industrial, and 25 percent retail properties. The question the market and his competitors keep asking is, “What exactly does he do and how does he do it?”

Buoyed by his acquisitions, Mazzon has become a force in business development among commercial real estate service providers. Mazzon is the sales representative for Restoration HQ, ACE Building Maintenance, Elevate Parking, Next Protection, and Starkweather Roofing. By representing five premier brands, Mazzon is responsible for growing each client across Arizona to help their clients.

With the number of clients Mazzon serves, many sales reps would ask how one person sells for five of the top brands in the market when most reps fail at selling for one.

“Most reps sell a service. I offer a system,” Mazzon said. “My competitors in each industry go to one building and sell one thing. I go to one lunch and offer five solutions based on their needs. In one week, they booked five meetings and I booked 50. I’m not a one-stop shop or a jack of all trades as my clients are the experts.

“On both ends of this business, companies are concerned about retaining talent. I don’t plan on leaving soon, so the fear of loss goes out the window,” Mazzon said.

This year Restoration HQ has grown by 10 percent; Ace Janitorial had the best Q4 in sales being a privately owned janitorial company in Arizona; Elevate Parking has taken the throne as the largest commercial managed parking provider in Arizona; Next Protection is No. 1 in Ranking Arizona among fire protection firms in Arizona; and with Starkweather Roofing as the newest client of  Mazzon Industries, 2024 is shaping up to its best year yet.

“I’m grateful for each one of my clients,” Mazzon said. “They all have one expectation level – and the expectation level is high. It’s the same they require from their staff to implement exceptional service for their clients.”

What’s Mazzon’s next move?

“Something bigger than what has already been done. It’s about to happen,” he said.

    PHOENIX, ARIZONA (Nov. 8, 2023) – NAI Horizon represented the owners of one of the Valley’s most popular Latino dance spots in the purchase of the vacant Sears building at Desert Sky Mall. The buyers are transforming the new space into their second entertainment venue in the Valley.

NAI Horizon Executive Vice President Jeffrey Garza Walker, MRED, MBA, represented Club Capri Real Estate, LLC, of Phoenix in the $7.13 million purchase of the 120,000 SF space at Desert Sky Mall, a regional shopping center at 7611 W. Thomas Road, in Phoenix.

The buyers, brothers Melchor and Pedro Marques Jr. own El Club Capri, 2135 E. Van Buren, one of the biggest and longest-running (40 years) entertainment venues for Latino concerts, dances, parties, weddings, and quinceañeras.

“They have always wanted to open a similar venue on the West side,” Garza Walker said. “This is the perfect spot, and the community is very excited. The owners feel this entertainment facility is going to serve the people – who are about 80 percent Hispanic – in the community. The elected officials who represent this part of Phoenix are excited about what the new owners are going to turn it into. They are thrilled that the community is behind it as well.”

The Marques brothers own KSUN-1400 AM, a Spanish-language radio station serving Metro Phoenix. The regional Mexican music format is under the branding “La Mejor.” The station broadcasts Arizona Diamondbacks and Phoenix Suns games in Spanish.

“NAI Horizon continues to be a purposeful partner, making things happen positively in the community,” Garza Walker said. “This will be a great venue for West Phoenix.”

The new venue is expected to open in late 2024 or 1Q 2025.

Desert Sky Mall is located at 75th Avenue and Thomas Road. The mall was developed by Westcor and is managed by Macerich. The anchor stores are Curacao, Burlington, Mercado de los Cielos, and Dillard’s Clearance Center. Desert Sky Mall serves as a transit center for Valley Metro.

The seller, Seritage SRC Finance LLC of New York, New York, was represented by Trent Steeves with CBRE.
