31,443 square metres of distribution space complements Prologis’ existing Budapest portfolio

BUDAPEST (10 January 2017) – Prologis, Inc., the global leader in logistics real estate, announced that Prologis European Properties Fund II (PEPFII) has acquired M0 Central Business Park in Hungary from IDI Gazeley.

Two newly acquired, 100 percent let, facilities totalling 31,443 square metres will become part of the adjoining 98-percent let Prologis Park Budapest-Sziget, which currently comprises seven buildings totalling 150,000 square metres.

The park is southeast of Budapest in the sought after industrial zone of Szigetszentmiklós, which has direct access to national and international road networks via the M0 ring road.

Customers of newly acquired facilities include Easi Uplifts, FM Logistics, Quality Logistics Management, United Performance Metals CEE and UTi Hungary.

“Szigetszentmiklós is a core location for us in the Budapest market, and we have seen strong leasing activity there over the past 18-24 months,” said Laszlo Kemenes, senior vice president and country manager, Prologis Hungary. “This acquisition gives us full control of the park, and we anticipate that it will provide new opportunity for us to create additional value in the future.”

JLL facilitated the transaction.
