KKR and Mirastar, KKR Real Estate’s industrial and logistics platform in Europe, have acquired a 2.7-million-square-foot portfolio of eight UK logistics assets from Ares Real Estate funds.

The portfolio comprises modern, high-quality assets across established distribution markets in the Midlands, South East and North of England, including Corby, Doncaster, Stoke-on-Trent and Milton Keynes. The assets benefit from strong connectivity to key population centres and transport infrastructure.

The portfolio is fully occupied, with a weighted average lease term to break of nine years across a diversified tenant base. Approximately 60% of the rent roll is derived from investment-grade tenants or subsidiaries of investment-grade parent companies. The portfolio also has strong sustainability credentials, with BREEAM ratings ranging from Very Good to Outstanding.

Ekaterina Avdonina, CEO and Co-Founder at Mirastar, said: “This portfolio broadens Mirastar’s presence across several important UK logistics markets, adding a high-quality group of assets to our growing European platform. We see clear opportunities to apply Mirastar’s operating capabilities across the portfolio to drive long-term value creation.”

Mai-Lan de Marcilly, Co-Head of European Real Estate Equity at KKR, added: “We continue to see strong fundamentals in UK logistics, underpinned by resilient occupier demand and constrained supply in key markets. With its combination of durable income and meaningful growth potential, this portfolio represents the type of opportunity KKR’s diversified pools of capital are well positioned to pursue.”

KKR and Mirastar were advised by DTRE and DLA Piper.
