PARIS, 12 Nov. 2018 – PGIM Real Estate has acquired a 100,000-square-meter grade-A logistics platform located in Salon-de-Provence, 60 kilometers north of Marseille, on behalf of an institutional investor. PGIM Real Estate is the real estate investment business of PGIM Inc., the global investment management businesses of Prudential Financial, Inc. (NYSE: PRU).

The logistics platform is located in an established area highly sought after by both prime retailers and logistics specialists. It further benefits from direct access to two highways linking the north and south of France, allowing the delivery of goods across the entire Mediterranean arc and the Lyon-Marseille axis.

Salon-de-Provence

The property was built in 1995 as a turnkey property for Carrefour and was extended in 2003 and 2017. It comprises two structurally independent buildings – one dedicated to ambient storage and the other to cold storage – on a 240,000-square-meter plot. It is 100 percent let to retailer Carrefour with a remaining firm period of approximately eight years.

Both buildings comply with all the latest grade-A logistics requirements and allow for cross-docking operations.
