‘This transaction represents one of the largest in the Spanish logistics real estate sector in recent years,’ said Ben Bannatyne, president, Prologis Europe. ‘It follows our strategy of investing in ‘parks’ or ‘hubs’ and introduces PARKlife more widely to our customers, a European programme which improves the sustainability and environment of our parks for the people and communities who use them.’
