Colusa Industrial Properties

What Colusa Industrial Properties does

Colusa Industrial Properties Inc. (CIP) is a privately held, family-owned (Otterson family) commercial and industrial real estate developer and property manager headquartered in Colusa, California. Founded in 1948 and operating in the local community for over 76 years, the company owns and operates a 450-acre industrial park providing land and facilities leasing, state-of-the-art domestic water and wastewater systems, backup fire protection, and property management services to more than 80 commercial, industrial, food processing, and agricultural tenants. The park hosts a diverse tenant ecosystem including BASF Nunhems Seed, Colusa Rice Company, Farmers Fresh Mushrooms (260,000+ sq ft, ~300,000 lbs/week production), Wilbur Ellis, Simplot Grower Solutions, Riviana Foods, and others.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: subscription-based commercial and industrial leasing, transaction-based RV park and boat facilities at Colusa Landing, one-time residential lot sales at Sunrise Landing (180 home sites across five phases), and forthcoming transaction-based meat processing services. Go-to-market is sales-led via direct outreach, broker relationships (Ben Goldman Real Estate Brokerage, Sean Work at eXp Realty for residential), and community partnerships with the Colusa County Business and Visitor Center. Pricing for commercial leasing is quote-based while RV and boat rates are publicly disclosed ($75/day RV, $7/foot/month boat dock).

Beyond the core park, CIP operates wholly-owned subsidiaries including Tor Broadcasting Corporation (communications infrastructure at South Butte serving ~50 customers with radio, microwave, cellular, wireless internet services), Butte Creek Farms (2,832-acre rice and row crop ranch), Colusa Landing (88-acre resort with 59 RV pads, boat dock/launch, Slough House Social restaurant), and Sunrise Landing (residential community). The newest subsidiary is a CDFA and USDA-certified meat processing facility (Phase 1, 3,600 sq ft) launching Q4 2025 to serve 25 butcher shops in Northern California, funded in part by a California Jobs First Program grant with Community Development Services as a strategic partner.

Scale indicators11 records

Recent moves9 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• W. P. Carey: Diversified net-lease REIT with industrial exposure; relevant for understanding long-duration industrial lease economics comparable to CIP's recurring rental model.
• PS Business Parks: Multi-tenant industrial and flex/office park operator; provides a comp for CIP's mix of office suites and industrial space with shared infrastructure.
• Five Point Holdings: Large-scale California master-planned community developer (Great Park, Valencia); comparable to CIP's Sunrise Landing residential development on a much larger scale and useful for understanding entitlement/phase economics.
• Liberty Property Trust (now Prologis): Pre-acquisition Liberty was a major industrial REIT; useful historical reference for industrial park economics at CIP's scale and geography.
• Duke Realty / Prologis Industrial: Largest industrial REIT globally; while vastly larger scale, Prologis/Duke Realty set pricing and tenant-mix benchmarks that influence CIP's competitive positioning in Northern California logistics corridors.

Emerging players

• Limoneira Company: Diversified California agribusiness with owned farmland and real estate development (Harvest at Limoneira); relevant analog for a farming operation that is also monetizing land for residential/industrial use.

Direct peers

• EastGroup Properties: Industrial REIT focused on distribution and light industrial parks in Sunbelt markets; provides a useful comparison for CIP's small-market industrial park operating model.
• Tejon Ranch Company: California-based diversified land holding company combining industrial/retail real estate development, ranching/farming, and residential master-planned communities — structurally the closest public analog to CIP's industrial park + farm + residential model.
• STAG Industrial: Industrial REIT acquiring and leasing single-tenant and multi-tenant industrial properties; relevant for benchmarking CIP's industrial leasing economics and tenant base.
• First Industrial Realty Trust: Pure-play industrial REIT focused on light industrial and bulk distribution properties; comparable to CIP's core activity of leasing industrial lots and commercial buildings to enterprises.
