Verdion has acquired an urban logistics asset close to Aarhus in the Danish region of Jutland, its third in the Nordics for Verdion European Logistics Fund 1 (VELF 1).
The 16,180m² property, Niels Bohrs Vej 37, Skanderborg, has been bought from Hanssen Logistik, part of the Hanssen Ejendomme property company, for €12m.
Located in Skanderborg's industrial area of Stilling, it comprises an 8,223m² cross-dock warehouse with 1,857m² of offices and storage occupied by DHL and BFT Logistik & Ejendomme, as well as a new 6,100m² warehouse let to Dan-Form.
Peter Michael Tetzlaff, Head of Investment – Nordics, at Verdion said: “The Aarhus logistics market is increasingly attractive as the surge in ecommerce continues and supply across Denmark tightens. This modern, multi-let asset – which was secured in an off-market transaction – offers strong potential for value-add and occupies a strategic location on the E45 motorway, close to Denmark’s second-largest city with good links to the country’s main port. We are pleased to be marking our first acquisition in Jutland, an area we will be focusing on further in the months ahead.”
