Browning Investments, Inc. has been engaged in the acquisition, ownership, development, construction, leasing, management and disposition of investment real estate properties, since 1977.  The Indianapolis based company arranges project financing using equity capital from internal sources, private placements and joint venture relationships, along with mortgage financing from a variety of major institutions around the country, including banks, insurance companies and pension funds. Browning is comprised of a core group of experienced real estate professionals with extensive and varied experience in the commercial real estate industry.  Browning Investments, Inc. is guided by an entrepreneurial ethic and has demonstrated the ability to respond quickly to the ever changing economic conditions with the ability to take advantage of opportunities, regardless of their complexity.

Throughout the 1980’s, Browning Investments, Inc. left their mark on the Indianapolis market by developing several high profile Class A office buildings.  Browning pioneered the development of the North Meridian Corridor just north of Indianapolis with the creation of four major office parks, including Fidelity Plaza, Meridian Technology Center and Meridian Mark and Penn Mark Plaza.  The company also had a significant influence on the growth of the Indianapolis downtown skyline including the development of several prominent office properties in the Central Business District of Indianapolis, including Capital Center, 300 North Meridian, Landmark Center, Gateway Plaza and Pan Am Plaza.  To date, Browning Investments, Inc. has developed, constructed, leased and/or managed over 6.5 million square feet of office buildings.

Staying abreast of industry trends is a major ingredient of the success formula at Browning Investments, Inc.  The adverse market conditions that prevailed in investment real estate in the early 1990’s prompted the company to redirect its efforts to the industrial market, where the company has since excelled to become one of the largest developers of large-scale, bulk distribution facilities in the Mid-West.  In 2000, Browning Investments, Inc. developed the first building in the 500 acre Plainfield industrial park, known as AirTech Park.  To date, the company has developed or redeveloped over 2,000 acres of distribution and modern warehouse space for customers such as Amazon.com, Inc. (NYSE: AMZN), MedcoHealth Solutions, Inc. (MHS; NYSE), Brightpoint Inc. (CELL; NYSE), Reebok, Belkin Components, Logisco/Pepsico, Inc. (PEP; NYSE), MD Logistics and J.C. Penney Company, Inc. (JCP; NYSE).
