InfraRed Capital Partners, a real estate investment company, completed the acquisition of UK urban logistics portfolio from NW1 Partners, a financing advisory firm, and Marchmont Investment Management, an investor focussing on delivering absolute and risk-adjusted returns, for $70m. “Over the past year, the Covid-19 pandemic has undoubtedly accelerated changes in consumer shopping habits; driving the trend towards e-commerce related industrial space. This transaction is representative of InfraRed’s ongoing commitment to capturing the outperformance expected from the urban logistics sub-sector, and we expect that these assets will continue to benefit from strong occupational demand as this trend towards internet shopping continues. InfraRed is looking to expand its urban logistic holdings in the UK and Western Europe throughout 2021 with substantial capital remaining available for deployment," Dean Harrison, InfraRed Investment Director.
