MORRIS COUNTY — Newmark Associates, New Jersey’s largest and longest-established woman-owned commercial real estate brokerage firm, has been honored by the Morris County Chamber of Commerce with its Community Service Award, recognizing the Cedar Knolls-based firm’s nearly four decades of civic engagement alongside its business success.
Founded in 1987 by Susanne Newmark, and now co-led by Newmark and Nancy Glick, the firm has built a reputation across New Jersey’s key commercial real estate submarkets while maintaining an active presence in Morris County’s civic and charitable life. Newmark Associates holds WBENC, WBE, and SBE certifications and has long championed the advancement of women and minorities in business.
“This recognition belongs to everyone at Newmark Associates, and to the community that has supported us for nearly 40 years,” said Susanne Newmark, Founder and CEO. “From the beginning, we have believed that a business owes something to the place where it operates — not just as a matter of principle, but because strong communities and strong businesses build each other.”
Among the firm’s most visible philanthropic efforts is a summer internship program that brings commercial real estate education to students in the Newark school system, offering young people direct exposure to an industry that shapes the built environment of their own neighborhoods. Newmark has also served on the board of Jewish Family Services and remains active in the Morristown community. Team members across the firm serve in voluntary roles on planning boards, economic development committees, recreation and parks advisory committees, and numerous charitable organizations.
The Morris County Chamber of Commerce Community Service Award recognizes businesses and individuals whose contributions to civic, charitable, and community life reflect exceptional dedication beyond the ordinary course of business.
“We are deeply grateful to the Morris County Chamber of Commerce for this honor,” Newmark said. “Morris County has been home to this firm for nearly four decades. The relationships we have built here — with clients, colleagues, and neighbors — are the foundation of everything we do.”
Newmark Associates, located in Cedar Knolls, is an affiliate of CRESDA (Commercial Real Estate Supplier Diversity Alliance), servicing the supplier diversity requirements of Fortune 100 companies nationwide. The firm specializes in lease and sales transactions of office, industrial, retail, land, healthcare, and mixed-use properties, and has been recognized repeatedly by NJBIZ magazine and the CoStar Commercial Real Estate organization.
