Owners of the South Asheville commercial park Gerber Village, located at Hendersonville and Gerber Roads, announce that they have recently retained the services of Asheville-based Spake Real Estate for leasing representation.

Gerber Village was Asheville’s first mixed-use development, built on the site of the former Gerber baby food plant on Hendersonville Road. Today the retail park features 60,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space, over 27,000 square feet of Class A office space, and a street of Craftsman-style residential condos. Anchored by Office Depot, several notable restaurants and a specialty beer bar, Gerber Village is also home to a regional veterinary hospital, hair and nail salons, a window distributor, legal and financial service firms, an adventure travel company and numerous service businesses. Under the past year’s leadership of new owners Mike and Lizzie Thrasher, Gerber Village businesses and shoppers have benefited from investments in expanded parking, landscaping and signage.
