H. I. G. Realty has acquired eight logistics assets in France through two separate transactions as part of its commitment to growing last-mile and regional distribution networks in the country.
The fully leased assets are strategically positioned along France’s Logistics Backbone and the Atlantic Arc, providing direct access to major consumer hubs and key transportation routes. H. I. G. Realty now has 14 properties across France, totaling over 70,000m2 of logistics space.
Riccardo Dallolio, managing director and head of H.I.G. Realty in Europe, stated, “The addition of these eight assets in France marks a significant step in the expansion of H.I.G. Realty’s European logistics portfolio.
“This investment reinforces our commitment to acquiring well-located, high-quality properties in supply-constrained urban and peri-urban areas, which are critical to the evolving needs of last-mile and regional distribution networks.”
Jérôme Fouillé, managing director at H.I.G. Realty in Europe, added, “We continue to see strong fundamentals and long-term growth potential in last-mile and regional logistics, particularly in France’s key corridors where supply remains tight.
“These acquisitions reflect our conviction in the sector and our ambition to establish a leading logistics portfolio, spanning the country’s most dynamic and strategic locations. We remain focused on identifying additional opportunities to grow our presence in these high-barrier markets.”
