Futureal Group has acquired full ownership of the NoVa Park shopping center in Gorzow Wielkopolski, Poland. The project was developed as a joint venture between Caelum Development and Futureal Group. The acquisition was motivated by a 25% increase in year-on-year footfall and turnover figures, solidifying Nova Park’s position as the dominant shopping center in the whole Lubuskie voivodeship with over 1 million inhabitants.
Futureal, a leading real estate developer & investor in CEE, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the 50% stake of its joint venture partner, Caelum Development in the NoVa Park shopping center in Gorzow Wielkopolski, Poland, thereby increasing its stake to 100%.
“We are happy that the project we have put so much heart into goes into the good hands of such a reliable and caring partner. We are sure that Futureal will continue and expand the potential of the center in the best way. I would like to emphasize the very positive cooperation between our organizations and especially with my good friend Gabor Futó which enable us to create such a good project but for us the time is right to exit and concentrate on managing our long-term holdings.“ - says David Sharkey, founder of Caelum Development.
