Stoneweg Europe buys Dutch cold-chain hub at 8% discount to valuation

Company buys $51.7m cold-chain facility with 6% yield, tenant until 2034.

Singapore-listed Stoneweg Europe Stapled Trust (SERT) has completed the acquisition of a temperature‑controlled logistics facility in Waddinxveen, the Netherlands for approximately $51.7m (EUR35.0m), according to a filing by the trust’s managers.

The property at Transportweg 23‑25 is a freehold, modern logistics asset with 30,398 square metres of net lettable area, with approximately 90% of warehouse space and 10% office space.

It is fully leased to Combilo B.V., a long‑established fresh‑produce wholesaler, under an eight‑year triple‑net lease with two five‑year extension options.

The acquisition price was about 8% below the independent valuation and about 37% below estimated reinstatement cost, the managers said in the announcement.

The property is expected to deliver a net yield of 6.0% and was funded mainly from SERT’s existing cash resources, including proceeds from the divestment of the Maxima Rome site as part of a $586.56m (EUR400m) divestment programme.

The acquisition increases SERT’s exposure to logistics and light industrial assets in the Netherlands to 29.7%, and raises its overall logistics, light industrial, and data‑centre exposure to 60.5%. Western Europe and Nordics exposure now stands at 90.5%.

The logistics property is located in the A12 corridor with access to major Dutch cities and ports, including Rotterdam and The Hague.

The acquisition is not expected to have a material impact on SERT’s net tangible assets.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
