€15m bank financing for Panattoni Park Antwerp II (Sas van Gent 2)

Newport by Panattoni has secured €15 million of bank financing from BGO Europe Bank for Panattoni Park Antwerp II (Sas van Gent 2), a new-build logistics and industrial development in the Netherlands.

The project is located within the North Sea Port area, close to the Belgian border, offering access to both the North Sea and the Ghent–Terneuzen Canal. The location combines port-linked infrastructure with strong hinterland connectivity. The development also includes the option to create a private quay along the canal, strengthening multimodal distribution and supporting port-oriented supply chains.

Panattoni Park Antwerp II (Sas van Gent 2) is a brownfield redevelopment within a port-industrial zone, with a planned 22,000 sqm GFA. The building is targeting BREEAM-NL Excellent and will be fully electric and gas-free. Rooftop photovoltaics will be installed with an expansion option. The grid connection includes 1.5 MW of contracted capacity, with export-to-grid secured.

The scheme is designed to suit both logistics and manufacturing users, with higher power availability supporting scale-up requirements and a broader range of occupier profiles.

This financing milestone confirms the project’s bankability and supports delivery in a core, infrastructure-backed logistics market where power availability is increasingly shaping occupier decisions.

The asset is held within Newport Logistics Fund II, which is fully raised. The fund’s portfolio provides diversification across the UK, the Netherlands, France, Austria, Poland and Spain.


Newport by Panattoni secures €6m bank financing for logistics property near Mainz

Newport by Panattoni has secured €6m of bank financing from M.M.Warburg & Co for a logistics property in Erbes-Büdesheim, near Mainz, in Germany’s Rhine-Main logistics corridor.

Located in the Frankfurt am Main region with immediate access to the A63 and A61, the asset sits in one of Germany’s key logistics markets, benefiting from proximity to major freight corridors, Frankfurt Airport, and multimodal routes via the Rhine and inland river ports.

The project comprises approximately 9,400 sqm of logistics space on a 20,200 sqm site and is suited to light industrial, e-commerce, and pharmaceutical occupiers. It targets DGNB Gold and will include photovoltaics (approx. 0.9 MWp), heat pumps, smart metering, and rainwater reuse systems.

This is one of four projects secured within Newport Fund III to date. The financing milestone supports progress towards delivery, with completion expected in Q2 2026.

Fundraising remains open until August 2026, and Newport continues expanding Fund III’s pipeline with new opportunities.


France added to Newport Logistics Fund III portfolio

We’ve secured an 11.6-hectare site in France, near Paris, for a 37,000 sqm logistics development: Panattoni Park Paris West.

Panattoni Park Paris West is being delivered through Newport Logistics Fund III. With four projects already invested and underway across the UK and Germany, the addition of France further diversifies the portfolio.

This French project targets BREEAM Excellent, with rooftop photovoltaic panels across the entire roof and heat pump-based heating systems for the warehouse units. The platform is designed to accommodate one or several occupiers, particularly for high value-added operations in sectors such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. The location also offers potential for multimodal solutions, given its proximity to the Seine.

Construction starts in February 2026. Delivery in Q1 2027.

Fundraising for Newport Fund III will remain open until August 2026.


New lease at Panattoni Park Silesia IV

A new lease within the Newport portfolio!

Raben, one of the region’s most established logistics operators, has taken 7,500 sqm at Panattoni Park Silesia IV, part of the Newport Development Fund II. The company already occupies more than 200,000 sqm across Panattoni’s European network, and this new agreement further reinforces this long-term partnership.

Panattoni Park Silesia IV provides modern industrial space across two buildings in a highly strategic part of Silesia, one of Central Europe’s key industrial markets. The park already includes a 33,600 sqm distribution centre for Intermarché and a 5,000 sqm facility for a global logistics provider, offering both scale and a diversified tenant profile. Developed on a revitalised brownfield site with a rich industrial heritage, the project brings together strong market fundamentals and meaningful ESG credentials. It holds a BREEAM Excellent certification and has undergone a full life cycle analytis to optimise embodied carbon.

For Newport, it is another example of an asset that combines location, resilience, and long-term rental potential.


Newport by Panattoni raises €100 million for pan-European Logistics Fund III

  • Newport Logistics Fund III secures first €100 million in initial close of a targeted €300 million raise, one of Europe’s largest logistics fundraisings in 2025.
  • Significant early momentum, with commitments secured despite challenging market conditions.
  • Capital to support a diversified 10–12 project development pipeline across Europe, with three projects already secured in France, Germany, and the UK, and further assets under due diligence in Italy, Austria, and Germany.

Newport Logistics Fund III, part of the Panattoni group, has successfully raised the first €100 million at the first close of its third pan-European logistics fund, against a total target of €300 million. The initial close represents one of Europe’s largest logistics fundraisings of 2025 and demonstrates strong investor conviction in the fund’s strategy, track record, and pipeline.

The fund, which launched in May 2025, achieved its first close within a short timeframe, underscoring the continued appeal of modern, sustainable logistics development even against a macroeconomic backdrop of higher interest rates and muted real estate investment volumes. Investor geography will not be disclosed.

Newport Logistics Fund III will finance the development, leasing, and sale of 10–12 Class A logistics facilities across Europe. The first two funds, with a combined portfolio value of €350 million, have successfully delivered projects in key logistics markets across Europe, reflecting the fund series’ strong diversification profile across countries.

The new fund already has three secured assets in France, Germany, and the UK, as well as five additional projects at advanced due diligence stage across Italy, Austria and Germany. This confirms a robust pipeline from the outset and provides strong visibility on deployment.

In Germany, the Mainz-South project is now fully permitted, with construction underway. Located in Erbes-Büdesheim, the scheme benefits from excellent connectivity to the A63, A61 and A6 motorways and sits between the Rhine-Main and Rhine-Neckar regions, two of Germany’s most economically dynamic areas. Adjacent to Eli Lilly’s new €2.3 billion pharmaceutical campus, the project is designed to attract tenants in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and retail logistics.

In the UK, the fund has secured Panattoni Milton Keynes, a 94,000 sq ft Grade A logistics development strategically located in the UK’s “Golden Triangle.” The facility will offer 9 dock doors, 2 level access doors, EV charging, and a 12.5 metre clear internal height. It will appeal to occupiers across e-commerce, distribution, and high-value manufacturing.

A further project has been secured in France, with details to be announced at a later stage.

Across these and its broader pipeline, the fund continues to target diversified assets ranging from 10,000 sq m to more than 50,000 sq m, with more than 500,000 sq m to be developed across nine or more European countries.

Reflecting on the early success of the fundraising, which will continue until August 2026:

Daniel Raemy, CEO of Newport by Panattoni, said:
“Our strong first closing reflects the confidence investors place in our strategy, our team, and the depth of our development pipeline. Raising €100 million in such a short period, and in challenging market conditions, demonstrates clear belief in the resilience of European logistics and in our ability to originate and deliver high-quality, sustainable assets across multiple jurisdictions.”

“With secured assets in France, Germany and the UK, and further projects progressing in Italy, Austria, and Germany, we are well positioned to deploy capital efficiently. Our focus remains on disciplined, diversified development that delivers both long-term value and best-in-class ESG performance.”


New sustainability benchmark: Haydock 66 targets BREEAM Outstanding

Our investment within Newport Development Fund II, Panattoni Haydock 66 in the UK, illustrates how next-generation ESG standards are being implemented across our portfolio.

The 65,890 sq ft scheme is targeting a BREEAM Outstanding certification, placing it among the highest-rated industrial developments in the region and demonstrating what’s achievable for mid-box assets in mature logistics markets. Designed around net-zero carbon construction and long-term operational efficiency, it reflects our broader commitment to future-ready industrial space. This project also serves as evidence of the diversification of our Fund’s portfolio, not only in terms of geographic location but also in the variety of building types we invest in.

Construction is progressing, with completion expected in Q1 2026. Strategically located near Liverpool and the M6 corridor, Haydock 66 pairs advanced sustainability features with strong connectivity, a combination increasingly sought after by occupiers and investors alike.
