Hamburg, 15. February 2023 – The redos Group, an investor, asset and fund manager specialising in large-scale retail properties, has purchased the GLOBUS market at Rudolf-Diesel-Strasse 7 in Wesel. The property was acquired as part of an asset deal for Union Investment’s special AIF “Redos Einzelhandel Deutschland III”. The total rental area of the retail property is around 12,000 m2. The property, which has a total area of around 30,000 sq m, includes around 420 parking spaces for customers to use free of charge. The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.
After the former tenant real,- moved out, a new lease agreement was concluded with GLOBUS for a fixed term of 20 years plus option rights. GLOBUS is investing an amount in the double-digit millions in the core refurbishment of the building.
The property is easily accessible on the B58 trunk road, an important link from Wesel city centre eastwards to the A3 motorway and on to the A31 and A43. In addition, the long-term established retail location has excellent accessibility and can be reached by more than 85,000 inhabitants within a 15-minute drive.
