A partnership between Copley Point Capital and Sixth Street has acquired four fully-let UK logistics assets from Barings for an undisclosed sum.
Barings said the four logistics assets – sold on behalf of a strategy to acquire core European real estate – are located in Bristol, Daventry, Warrington and Nottingham.
Darren Hutchinson, managing director and head of UK transactions at Barings Real Estate, said: “This opportunistic sale is a good example of a strong sale discipline, realising a healthy profit in a relatively short hold-period, having successfully increased income by 20%.
“This transaction is a catalyst to enable us to implement our strategy to deepen and further diversify our industrial/logistics exposure by targeting more multi-let assets.”
Gunther Deutsch, managing director and head of European transactions and country head for Germany at Barings Real Estate, said: “This transaction highlights our ability to execute disposals in line with our asset management strategies and to realise value on behalf of our investors.”
Including this transaction, Deutsch said Barings has already concluded a sales volume of €380m in logistics in 2025.
“With nearly €2bn of capital to deploy in 2025, we are actively looking to reinvest into logistics, living and selective office assets, preferably with valu- add or core-plus characteristic across our core geographies, including the UK, Germany, France, the Netherlands, the Nordics, Spain and Italy,” Deutsch added.
