“The acquisition aligns well with the fund’s strategy of investing in well-located, high-quality assets,” Mr Katz said.

“The property is located in a well-established industrial precinct and secured by a strong lease covenant.”

“We are actively seeking opportunities to grow and diversify the fund’s asset base, enhance value and contribute to sustainable income growth for our investors,” he said.
