Samuel Brahem, Industrial Sales and Leasing, NAI Commercial Vancouver

The Background

From enterprise
B2B sales to industrial
real estate.

Samuel spent six years building and managing complex B2B sales motions across SaaS, professional services, and design-build construction. As a Business Development Manager and Director, he generated tens of millions in qualified pipeline, structured multi-stakeholder deals across Finance, Operations, and IT, and built outbound systems that consistently outperformed quota.

That work culminated at Truspace Design & Construction, where Samuel personally generated $45M+ in qualified pipeline and closed the firm’s largest deal to date, $12M, in a region where the company had no prior presence. The throughline across every engagement: operational discipline, structured discovery, and consultative advisory grounded in market reality.

Industrial real estate brings those same skills home. Metro Vancouver’s industrial market is one of the most supply-constrained in North America , vacancy in single digits, lease terms favouring landlords for the foreseeable future, and the difference between a strong deal and a weak one measured in years of operating cost. Tenants, landlords, and investors all need a broker who can model the trade-offs honestly and execute without drama.

Samuel completed the UBC Sauder School of Business Real Estate Trading Services Program and joined NAI Commercial Vancouver to work under Managing Partner Rob DesBrisay. He is also the founder of IndustrialVancouver.ca, a market intelligence platform tracking availability, transaction comparables, and tenant activity across the Lower Mainland.
