A creative partnership between Caroline County Economic Development and Donovan Marine, represented by John Foster of SVN Miller Commercial Real Estate, helped land a lease agreement that brought Patriot Aluminum to Caroline County, Maryland.

When Patriot Aluminum approached Caroline County Economic Development about expanding their operations from Felton, Delaware, Debbie Bowden knew firsthand from her experience with the symposium that the Engerman Avenue property would be a perfect fit. She referred Patriot Aluminum to the listing agent, John Foster at SVN Miller, who worked with both parties to close the deal.

“It was a combination of a collaborative partnership, a strong and credit-worthy client and great market conditions that created this fast-moving deal,” said John Foster. “It was a great experience for all parties involved.”
