As retailers continue to target the Midwest for expansion opportunities, JLL has bolstered its tenant representation practice with the addition of Jason Press. Press will serve as a Vice President in the firm’s Chicago office, working on the team lead by Executive Vice President Lew Kornberg. Press joins JLL with more than 15 years of diverse real estate experience facilitating hundreds of transactions valued in excess of $500 million. He brings with him a strong roster of national and local retailer clients.
“As the economy and demographics continue to improve in the Chicagoland area, Jason’s in-depth understanding of the city’s urban and suburban retail landscapes, along with his demonstrated ability to win and cultivate new and existing client relationships, will be a tremendous value-add to our expanding retail team,” said Kornberg.
