Aviva Investors has acquired the FOZ building, a highly sustainable building located in the heart of Amsterdam’s business district. Providing approximately 12,700m² of Grade-A office accommodation, along with additional retail space and a private courtyard garden at ground floor level, FOZ offers excellent sustainability credentials with an Energy Label Rating of A and BREEAM In-Use certification of ‘Excellent’.
FOZ is situated in the middle of ‘South Axis’, the rapidly-evolving business district of Amsterdam. With high-quality office space, good amenities and excellent connectivity including direct connections with Amsterdam Central and Schiphol International Airport, South Axis is considered as being the prime office market in the Netherlands and one of Europe’s most attractive office locations.
The building is currently multi-let to a number of tenants, including Simmons & Simmons,Snowflake andCoolblue.
George Fraser-Harding, Fund Manager at Aviva Investors, said: “We are very happy to have acquired FOZ, an iconic building located prominently at the centre of one of Europe’s most dynamic office markets. As well as being in keeping with our wider climate transition strategy, sitting alongside our work to actively decarbonise existing inefficient real estate assets, this building is also reflective of our continued ambition in continental Europe, a market we believe offers great potential to deliver long-term performance in client portfolios.”
