Prologis CEE Strengthens its Portfolio with New Acquisitions in Poland and Hungary

The acquired portfolio totalling 94,200 square metres is 100 percent leased with a weighted average term to next break of 6 years. It comprises:

•    A 56,700 square metre building in Gliwice, Poland, renamed Prologis Park Gliwice, situated in Upper Silesia. The facility, occupied by Tesco, is located in the centre of the Silesian agglomeration and one of Poland's core markets – next to the crossroads of two trans-European networks the A1 and A4; and

•    Prologis Park Budapest-Ullo, the 37,500 square metre Auchan-occupied building in Budapest, Hungary, located in the vicinity of the National Airport and the Budapest ring road M0, 30 kilometres from Budapest city centre.
“These two properties leased to premium customers are exciting additions to the Prologis portfolio in Poland and Hungary. Both are in key locations on major commercial routes that are growing in importance due to an increase in intra-regional trade in Central & Eastern Europe”, said Ben Bannatyne, regional head for Prologis Central & Eastern Europe.

Colliers International real estate agency represented the seller during this transaction.
