Paris West reaches new construction milestone for Newport Logistics Fund III
Panattoni Park Paris West, a French logistics investment within Newport Logistics Fund III, has reached a new construction milestone.
Partners and local representatives recently gathered in Gaillon/Val d’Hazey for a symbolic first-stone ceremony. While works had already been underway on site, the event marked an official moment to bring together the partners involved in the project.
The investment comprises a 37,000 sqm logistics asset on a redeveloped brownfield site along the Seine Axis, between Paris and Le Havre. The location provides access to the Greater Paris gateway, the Normandy logistics corridor and multimodal transport options, including the A13 motorway, rail connection to Paris and potential use of river transport.
The asset is designed as a flexible logistics platform, divisible from approximately 18,000 sqm and suitable for one or several occupiers. The target occupier profile includes high value-added logistics users, including pharma and cosmetics.
Paris West is being developed with a focus on sustainability-led asset quality. The project is targeting BREEAM Excellent certification and includes rooftop photovoltaic panels, heat pumps and biodiversity measures.
Delivery is planned for Q1 2027.

Dortmund logistics investment strengthens Newport’s German portfolio
Newport Logistics Fund III has added a new logistics and light industrial investment in Germany’s Ruhr region, one of the country’s key logistics and industrial markets.
The investment, known as Dortmund, is located in Schwerte, North Rhine-Westphalia, close to the A1/A45 interchange. The location gives the Fund exposure to a large and supply-constrained German market, supported by strong regional infrastructure and established industrial demand.
The project will comprise approximately 18,500 sqm of logistics and light industrial space. The format is designed to support occupier flexibility, with potential for either single-tenant use or division into two units.
The investment rationale is based on Ruhr region fundamentals: constrained supply, low vacancy, motorway connectivity and access to a new municipal industrial park developed in close cooperation with the city and TechnoPark und Wirtschaftsförderung Schwerte GmbH.
Dortmund is designed with a focus on operational performance and sustainability-led asset quality. The project is targeting DGNB Gold certification and will include fossil fuel-free heating, a photovoltaic system, rainwater use, smart metering and e-mobility infrastructure.
Completion is planned for Q3 2027.
