Patron Capital, the pan-European institutional investor focused on property-backed investments, in partnership with 7R, a developer specializing in the construction of high-quality warehouses have announced the sale of an approximately 30,000 sqm logistics asset in Goleniów, Poland to an undisclosed institutional investor for €22m.
The completion of this deal demonstrates that despite the economic uncertainty we have seen over the last 12-months, investor appetite for modern, well-located energy efficient European logistics assets remains robust. Our longstanding team with their responsible investment focus and creative approach has played a key role in the success of this asset, and we know this will continue to be the case on new and existing projects as we work to provide exceptional value to our investors in 2023 and beyond.
Wiktor Lesinski, Investment Director at Patron Capital
We are seeing increasing interest from investment funds in high-quality projects that offer environmentally friendly solutions with a visible reduction in energy consumption and a concomitant reduction in carbon footprint. The warehouse in Goleniow has met these expectations. It is a technologically advanced, environmentally friendly, first-class project. We are pleased that together with our partner Patron Capital we were able to offer the buyer a property that meets the highest market standards.
