CBRE Global Investors has sold the Europaring 11 logistics building in Straubing in south-western Germany to a fund of Savills Investment Management KVG GmbH.

The 36,500 m² asset was originally built as a tyre warehouse and, after its successful repositioning by CBRE Global Investors, has been fully let to Encory GmbH, a joint venture between BMW and the ALBA Group, since 2018.

The logistics property with a site area of around 63,500 m² is located in the freight centre in the port of Straubing-Sand, around nine kilometres away from Straubing city centre. It is connected to the regional and inter-regional transport network via the B 20 main road.

“The sale is excellent proof of our in-house logistics expertise. In a period of just three years, we were able to achieve a successful repositioning with a subsequent exit to the benefit of our investors,” said Tore Gehres, Head of Asset Management Office & Logistics Germany at CBRE Global Investors.

Encory provides disposal solutions for automotive parts and related logistics and consulting services. The company increases the level of recycling for automotive parts.

The buyer was advised by CBRE GmbH (brokerage), JonesDay (legal) and CBRE Preuss Valteq (technical due diligence).
