Principals Pay $3.1 Million For Custom Facility
MPO VIDEOTRONICS RELOCATING TO FORMER
KRETEK HEADQUARTERS IN MOORPARK, CA




MOORPARK, CA --
Kretek International's former headquarters in Moorpark, CA, a custom-designed facility that takes industrial building ambience to a new level with such features as an arched foyer and mosaic tile in common areas, has been acquired by principals of MPO Videotronics for the firm's relocation from Newbury Park, CA, announces Westcord Commercial Real Estate Services.

Tony Principe, executive vice president of Westlake Village, CA-based Westcord, reports that MPO Videotronics Principal Lawrence Kaiser paid $3.1 million for the 40,000 sq. ft. building located at 5069 Maureen Lane in Moorpark. Principe represented Kretek International, the sellers.   The buyers represented themselves.

Established in 1947, MPO Videotronics is a leading production film company with special expertise in custom video/audio system designs and complete, full service installations.  During the past decade, MPO developed the largest and thinnest projection wall system of its time -- known as Videorama.  Today, MPO's expanded line of videowall products reportedly pace the industry for size, thinness, price and quality. MPO Videotronics is currently occupying its new facility.

The company has other offices in Portland, Oregon and New York City. MPO's new facility also features a spacious cafeteria, large executive offices, oak paneling, and an executive wing reached via the foyer.  The fully air conditioned, concrete tilt-up building includes a 24-foot-clear warehouse. Kretek International, a manufacturer and distributor of specialty tobacco products, recently initiated occupancy of its new, similarly upgraded, 80,000 sq. ft. headquarters, also in Moorpark.

Westcord is one of the Los Angeles area's top 25 commercial real estate companies with offices in Westlake Village, CA, and Van Nuys, CA.
