EQT Real Estate Acquires US Logistics Portfolio

EQT Real Estate, a subsidiary of EQT AB, has acquired a 25-property logistics portfolio from Mapletree Investments. The portfolio spans 4.3 million square feet across key U.S. industrial markets including Jacksonville, Nashville, Richmond, Atlanta, New York City, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and South Florida. These assets are strategically located along major transport corridors like I-95, I-81, and I-10, featuring an average clear height of 28 feet and low office finish, making them ideal for logistics operations. EQT Real Estate plans to implement active management strategies, including targeted leasing, site improvements, and selective redevelopment, to enhance the portfolio's long-term value. Matthew Brodnik, Chief Investment Officer at EQT Real Estate, emphasized the investment's alignment with their thematic approach to infill logistics in the United States.
