Sonae Sierra has recently taken over the management of two shopping centers in Spain and Germany, Los Conquistadores in Badajoz, Spain, and Post Galerie in Karlsruhe, Germany, increasing its international portfolio under management.
Located in the center of the German city of Karlsruhe - one of the cities with greater purchasing power in Germany - the Post Galerie has a GLA of 26,000 m², 58 shops, and covers a market of 1.3 million potential consumers. In Germany, Sonae Sierra already owns and manages the Alexa in Berlin, and the Münster Arkaden in Münster, and is scheduled to inaugurate next Autumn the Loop5 in Weiterstadt.
