New York-based Supplement Manufacturing Partners has leased more than 100,000 square feet of industrial space and will relocate its headquarters here.

The supplement manufacturing company’s real estate firm JLL announced Wednesday that SMP Nutra, as it’s called, has leased 103,494-square-foot at 12333 Enterprise Blvd., Largo.

Lease terms were not disclosed, and a moving date has not been sent. “The lease was just signed,” a spokesperson says in a text.

The 3-acre property, which is between Starkey and Belcher roads, is made up of two buildings that are a combined 91,000 square feet of warehouse space and 12,000 square feet of office space. It has high perimeter warehouse windows, front parking, rear loading, a clear height ranging from 14 to 30 feet, 10 dock well loading doors and two grade level loading doors.

The new site, the company says in the JLL statement, allows for growth and expansion and will employ more than 100 people. Some of those employees will be executives moving from New York. SMP also plans to hire locally.

SMP Nutra’s headquarters are currently in Brentwood on Long Island. The company is a private-label supplement manufacturer “with over 700 different stock formulas and using the most modern machinery in creating quality products.”

According to its website, it offers a turnkey service which includes manufacturing, compliance, graphic design and order fulfillment.

SMP owner Steve Milano says in the JLL statement that it was drawn to Florida by the state’s business-friendly environment and labor market.

That, he says, “makes it an ideal location to move our headquarters and expand our business operations.”

JLL’s senior managing director Peter Cecora, executive managing director John Dunphy and associate Olivia Brock represented SMP Nutra.

The landlord, a joint venture between The STRO Cos. and Kushner Cos, was represented by Deron Thomas, Tyler Thomas and Kyle Harris of Safety Harbor-based Industrial Realty Solutions.
