ARETE INDUSTRIAL Fund Shifts Portfolio Focus, Sells Park Rokycany II and Targets Foreign Acquisitions
In June of this year, the investment group ARETE successfully completed the sale of its premium logistics complex, ARETE Park Rokycany II, to the REICO LONG LEASE fund managed by REICO investiční společnost Erste Asset Management, a.s. This divestment is part of the ARETE INDUSTRIAL fund’s strategy to maximize returns from assets under management. The proceeds from the transaction will be immediately reinvested into new acquisitions and further portfolio development. ARETE Park Rokycany II offers nearly 30,000 m² of warehouse and office space built to high technical and environmental standards. In June 2025, the park also obtained BREEAM® New Construction certification at the Very Good level. A key benefit is the park’s strategic location near the D5 motorway, ensuring excellent logistics connectivity between Prague and the German border. Another attractive element for the buyer was the long-term single tenant – the German logistics company Thomas Duvenbeck Immobilien, part of the British investment group Waterland. “The strategy of the ARETE INDUSTRIAL fund is to generate and deliver the highest possible returns to its investors. By selling ARETE Park Rokycany II, we are freeing up capital that will be promptly reinvested into prepared acquisitions abroad. To maximize the overall value of the portfolio upon the fund’s planned exit in 2027, increasing the share of foreign assets is clearly a positive step – and we are now shifting part of the portfolio focus in that direction,” said Miro Barnáš, CIO Real Estate at ARETE Group. “Another important factor is that this successful sale confirms the liquidity of the fund’s portfolio assets, as well as their fair market value,” Miro Barnáš added.
