Blum and Demeroutis join CBRE from Cushman & Wakefield | PICOR, where they were key members of the firm's industrial team. At CBRE, they will focus on industrial leasing, sales and advisory services.

"Jesse and Alex are highly regarded professionals who bring exceptional insight, integrity and client focus," said Jeff Casper, CBRE's first vice president and Tucson Market Leader.
