PRESS RELEASE – REGULATED INFORMATION EMBARGO UNTIL 08/11/2016 – 5.45 PM
Aalst, 8th November 2016, Montea (MONT) today completed the full leasing of its new-build project covering more than 40,000 m² at Greenpark Aalsmeer.
Montea purchased 60,000 m² of land from Greenpark Aalsmeer (Schiphol Area Development Company). This new industrial development is aimed in particular at increasing the provision of logistics services in the vicinity of Amsterdam and Schiphol.
Since acquiring the site, Montea has already developed a large building of 40,000 m², of which 30,000 m² has been leased in advance to Bakkersland. The remaining 10,000 m² of high-quality logistics space has now been leased to Scotch & Soda, an internationally known fashion brand. The new lease has been signed for a term of 9 years (first break option after 5 years) and consists of 8,171 m² of warehousing, 487 m² of office space and a mezzanine area of 1,341 m². Montea will build an additional mezzanine of 4,143 m² at the request of Scotch & Soda.
Scotch & Soda will start operations at the complex during the first quarter of 2017. The site will be used to accommodate the company's logistics activities which have increased due to the worldwide expansion and success of the brand.
This new lease means that Montea – exactly as planned – has now fully leased the entire complex of more than 40,000 m².
Industrial Real Estate Partners and DTZ Zadelhoff jointly advised Montea on the lease. The transaction was brokered by Van Gool ♦ Elburg Vastgoedspecialisten B.V on behalf of Scotch & Soda B.V.
