IMMOFINANZ Group acquires self-storage property in Den Bosch

IMMOFINANZ AG / Key word(s): Real Estate

26.06.2012 / 09:47


With the acquisition of a property in the Dutch city of Den Bosch during
mid-June, IMMOFINANZ Group has further expanded its self-storage portfolio.
This facility will now be integrated into IMMOFINANZ Group's successful
City Box chain, bringing the total number of City Box properties to 24.

'Our regular travels through our markets always include the evaluation of
interesting acquisition targets. With the takeover of an existing
self-storage property in Den Bosch, we have acquired an asset that can be
optimally integrated into our established City Box chain in the Netherlands
and will lead to a further increase in value. One of the decisive factors
for us was the opportunity to close the transaction at once and to
immediately start work on the realisation of available synergies',
commented Manfred Wiltschnigg, member of the Executive Board of IMMOFINANZ
Group.

IMMOFINANZ Group has held a successful position on the Dutch market for
five years with City Box: it acquired a 90% stake in this Dutch
self-storage company in 2007 and increased this holding to 95% during the
2009/10 financial year. The acquisition of this self-storage property in
Den Bosch will expand the company's portfolio to include an attractive
location approx. 90 km south of Amsterdam that offers both private and
business customers approx. 5,000 sqm of storage space in 700 units.
Wiltschnigg added: 'We see a growing demand for safe and affordable
temporary storage space, not only by private households but also by
self-employed persons and smaller firms. And the City Box concept provides
a flexible solution exactly for their needs.' With a current total of 24
facilities near major cities, City Box is one of the leading self-storage
companies in the Netherlands.
