Valor Real Estate Partners ("Valor"), Europe’s fastest-growing last-mile real estate specialist, has strengthened its portfolio with a prime acquisition in Silvertown, East London. The asset, secured on behalf of its joint venture with QuadReal Property Group ("QuadReal"), aligns with their high-conviction strategy in the rapidly expanding urban logistics sector.
Prime Industrial Acquisition in Supply-Constrained Market
The newly acquired 4,100m² property boasts top-tier specifications and is fully leased to Restore, a leading relocation, storage, and records management company. With seven years remaining on the lease and a rent review set for 2027, the asset offers strong income stability in one of London’s most supply-constrained logistics submarkets, where available stock has declined by 26% since 2011.
Strategic Location for Last-Mile Logistics
Situated minutes from the A13 and A406, and immediately south of London City Airport, the property provides seamless connectivity across the UK’s dominant e-commerce hub. The acquisition underscores Valor and QuadReal’s strategic focus on urban logistics hubs where supply constraints drive strong rental growth and long-term value creation.
Strengthening a High-Quality European Portfolio
This transaction marks the fourth joint venture acquisition in 2025, bringing total deployment to €200m across the UK, France, and the Netherlands. The pace of acquisitions reflects the partners’ confidence in the resilient urban logistics sector and Valor’s market-leading deal sourcing and execution capabilities.
Industry Leaders on the Investment Strategy
Jeremy Achkar, Senior Vice President at Valor, stated: “This latest investment is fully aligned with our strategy of acquiring best-in-class, last-mile properties across Europe’s major cities.”
Thomas Blangy, Senior Vice President at QuadReal, added: “Together with Valor, we have built a high-quality portfolio of industrial and logistics assets spanning nearly 585,000m² across Europe and the UK. This latest investment aligns with our global strategy of targeting high-growth urban logistics hubs where supply constraints create significant value potential.”
