About
Who we are
We are privately owned and invest both directly and in joint venture with domestic and international partners. The objective of the Firm is to be one of Europe’s leading vertically integrated logistics real estate operating businesses.
What we do
We invest from our balance sheet and in joint venture investment programmes in a range of real estate asset classes in the UK and Europe so as to have the flexibility to deploy capital on a “right time, right place” basis. Presently our focus is on logistics real estate.
Allowing the creation of portfolios which match the individual requirements of investment partners, this approach is based around an “income-based total return” focus. The approach seeks to establish portfolios which generate a high-quality, distributable income stream supplemented with capital upside delivered through occupier-led asset management initiatives and development.
We are independent and aligned with our investors – the management team co-invests in every transaction.
