7R, a Polish-based company specializing in providing customers with innovative and eco-friendly warehouse and logistics space, in a joint venture partnership with MFC Real Estate and DIL Polska Baumanagement, has finalized the sale of 7R City Flex Warsaw Airport I to Macquarie Asset Management. Strategically located within the city limits, the facility consists of three buildings totaling 15,900 square meters and is fully leased. The transaction value is approximately €29 million. This marks another transaction between Macquarie Asset Management and 7R. In November 2021, the investor also acquired urban warehouses near Wrocław, Gdańsk, and Łódź.

Macquarie Asset Management is a major investor in the European real estate sector. On behalf of one of its managed accounts, the asset manager has acquired the 7R City Flex Warsaw Airport I logistics complex from 7R, MFC Real Estate, and DIL Polska Baumanagement. The facility is an A-class investment that combines eco-friendly design with high-quality logistics space. The property is located in a well-connected area—just 3 km from Warsaw Chopin International Airport and only 8.5 km from the city center—providing excellent access to the S2 expressway and the A2 motorway leading toward Germany and the western regions of Poland.

The Polish logistics sector has shown steady growth in recent years as demand for e-commerce continues to rise. With its strategic location and state-of-the-art facilities, this investment offers an exciting opportunity to capitalize on the strong demand for logistics in the region while strengthening our partnership with 7R.

7R City Flex Warsaw Airport I is already fully leased to tenants from industries such as pharmaceuticals, engineering, logistics, and home improvement. In addition, Avenger Flight Group operates the first commercial aviation training center in Poland there.

7R City Flex Warsaw Airport I is a state-of-the-art logistics complex that offers the ideal combination of quality and access to key infrastructure, helping businesses to grow. These features are highly valued by tenants, who see the facility as the perfect place to relocate their logistics operations, and I am certain that Macquarie and its investors will also benefit from this significant advantage.

Chief Capital Markets Officer at 7R

The efficiency of 7R City Flex Warsaw Airport I is greatly enhanced by modern solutions implemented throughout the facility. These include LED lighting, additional natural lighting in the loading dock areas, skylights and smoke dampers, gas radiators, and a sprinkler system. To reduce heat loss through the roofs of the 10-meter-high buildings, the facility was also equipped with destratification units that help equalize air temperature. The complex is also BREEAM certified, which means it embodies the principles of sustainable industrial construction and reflects key elements of 7R’s development strategy.

When launching each of our projects, one of our priorities is to implement innovative and environmentally friendly solutions that meet sustainable development criteria. On the one hand, we recognize that this approach is currently in high demand among companies seeking modern logistics space; on the other hand, we firmly believe that, in the long run, it will also increase the value of new industrial properties.

Tomasz Kostrzewa

Investment Director at 7R

We are very pleased to have completed this successful joint venture with 7R and DIL Polska Baumanagement, and we are confident that Macquarie has acquired a highly attractive logistics development.
