Logistics developer-investor GLP announced on Thursday that it has appointed Philippe Graziani as country director in France.
Philippe Graziani will be responsible for the implementation of GLP’s business strategy, which aims to optimise its logistics portfolio, whilst also expanding GLP’s activities to include new developments.
Graziani joined GLP’s French team in January 2019 as asset management & transactions director, in charge of investment and valuation of the French portfolio, which now represents around 850,000 m2.
The portfolio is expected to grow further in 2022, with almost 150.000 m2 under development. Including these newly acquired assets, GLP will pass the symbolic milestone of one million m2 of warehouses under management in 2022.
Nick Cook, President of GLP Europe, said: 'With over 20 years’ experience in property investment and asset management, Philippe’s expertise will be a great asset as we continue to grow in France, one of the largest logistics markets in Europe. Philippe will play a key role in achieving our long-term goals.'
