"I am honored to once again have received this prestigious award," Schwartz said. "Companywide, we are very proud of the success we've had this year, including the accelerated growth of our global platform, the formation of five new property funds, valued at more than $16.3 billion, and our continued expansion into new and emerging distribution markets. This has been achievable through our world-class associates, our strong customer relationships and the high quality of our strategically located distribution facilities. We look forward to similar success in the future as we continue to grow our global presence."
