CBRE Global Investors has secured new tenants for 21,000 sq m of logistics space in two separate transactions in Germany. The new long-term leases were closed at the recently acquired Airpark Berlin logistics park and at a logistics facility in Dietzenbach near Frankfurt.
At Airpark Berlin, Geis Air + Sea GmbH, a subsidiary of international shipping and logistics company Geis Group, has taken a 5,000 sq m lease. CBRE Global Investors bought the state-of-art logistics park at the end of last year and three of the four c. 5,000 sq. m buildings in the last construction phase have recently been completed and are already rented out. Overall, the Airpark Berlin encompasses 83,000 sq. m of space. It is located on the A113 motorway, 30 minutes from Berlin’s inner city, and is only a few kilometers from the Schönefeld and the new Berlin Brandenburg airports.
In Dietzenbach, CBRE Global Investors has leased more than 16,000 sq. m of logistics space to teknihall Elektronik GmbH. The company, specializing in servicing electronic products, took a 5,500 sq. m lease in December and has now expanded its space by 10,700 sq m to occupy the entire building. The asset is located 15 kilometers south of Frankfurt. Both the A3 an A661 motorways can be reached in a few minutes from the site.
“With the addition of Geis Air + Sea, we are building on the diverse mix of tenants at Airpark Berlin,” said Tore Gehres, Head of Asset Management Logistics Germany at CBRE Global Investors. “We have tenants from the industrial, food and logistics sectors on site. Aside from the location, the leasing success in Dietzenbach hinged on our ability to provide an attractive package for teknihall, particularly to provide further space for growth.”
With €11.3bn* of assets under management and seven million sq. m of space across 11 countries, CBRE Global Investors is a leading logistics investor and operator in Europe.
