Industrial real estate operator and developer AMB announced it has leased 6,000 m2 in AMB Port of Rouen, a development in the Paris market which is now fully leased.
The new lease with Lincoln Electric, a manufacturer of welding equipment, in conjunction with the previously announced 19,500 m2 of leasing to Schenker France and Necotrans, means the 25,500 m2 project is fully leased a month before completion.
The Port of Rouen occupies a strategic position within France and provides rapid access to major economic centres in the region through a vast highway network, a dense railway system and two major airports, Roissy and Orly.
'The geographic position of the Port of Rouen, between Paris and Le Havre, makes it extremely important to our global customer base - the leaders in distribution, logistics and retail,' said Francois Rispe, AMB's vice president and general manager for France. 'Working with the port to achieve its economic development goals, we were able to deliver state-of-the-art distribution facilities to meet our customers requirements, while mitigating risk by pre-leasing the entire facility.'
