CBRE Investment Management Acquires Grade-A Logistics Asset in Lauwin Planque, France

CBRE Investment Management (“CBRE IM”), on behalf of a fund sponsored by the firm, has acquired a Grade-A logistics facility located in Lauwin Planque, a strategic logistics hub in the Lille region of northern France.

The asset, delivered in 2017, offers approximately 55,270 sqm of modern logistics space and is fully leased to Global Logistics Technologies (GLT), a leading logistics operator. Featuring robust technical specifications and an optimal layout, the asset also aligns with CBRE IM’s sustainability objectives, with energy-efficient infrastructure and potential for further enhancements.

The Lille logistics market is recognised as a gateway to France, linking the country with northern Europe and the UK. The immediate proximity of A21 and A1 highways provides for excellent connectivity to major transport routes and regional hubs. Lauwin Planque benefits from a substantial catchment area, making it highly attractive for occupiers seeking efficient distribution capabilities.

Thibault Nicolle-Malpas, Head of Transactions, France at CBRE Investment Management, said: “The acquisition of this sizeable warehouse in one of France’s most established market fits seamlessly within our strategy to invest in high-quality properties across key European markets. Despite challenging market conditions, we have been very active in 2025, and we aim to continue the momentum in 2026, selectively deploying and recycling capital across sectors and strategies.”

Antonio Simontalero, Portfolio Manager at CBRE Investment Management, commented: “This acquisition strengthens the fund’s logistics portfolio with a high-quality asset in a prime location, delivering resilient income and strong tenant covenants. Beyond the immediate performance benefits, we believe this investment will create sustainable long-term value for our investors by combining stable cash flow with future-proof specifications and strategic connectivity.”

CBRE IM was advised by Monassier & Associés.
