Investing In Europe​

Through our offices in London, Berlin and Barcelona, we invest in pan-European industrial and logistics assets with a broad risk/return profile. Our seasoned team has executed over $3B in transactions in the last five years.

Capitalizing on the undersupplied European industrial market, our Clarion Gramercy platform acquires, develops, and manages institutional quality properties in key logistics locations throughout Western Europe. We focus on Germany, the Netherlands, France and Spain, yet maintain an active investment pipeline covering many additional European countries.

The team leverages the deep relationships built with some of Europe’s leading businesses and expects ongoing demand from a range of tenants that span Europe and US, fueled by the growth in ecommerce and expanded trade.

Primary investment strategies include that are subject to existing leases, purchases properties through sale-leaseback transactions and funds build-to-suit developments.
