Ares Management Corporation has announced the consolidation of its global logistics real estate platforms under a single brand, Marq Logistics. The newly launched brand will represent Ares' vertically integrated global logistics real estate platform managing facilities that total more than 600 million sqm across the Americas, Europe and APAC.


Marq brings together Ares' vertically integrated logistics real estate platform in North America and Europe, including Ares Industrial Management, with the global GLP logistics real estate platform outside of China. This follows Ares' acquisition of the international business and certain affiliates of GLP Capital Partners Limited, which closed in March 2025.

With Marq, Ares combines its scale, expertise and integrated logistics real estate capabilities to deliver consistent solutions to its tenants globally as a landlord of choice.

"Marq represents an exciting next chapter for the Ares Real Estate business, building on our top three global leadership position in one of our highest conviction sectors," said Julie Solomon, Co-Head of Ares Real Estate. "At its core, Marq aims to deliver global scale and local operational excellence to our logistics tenants through a commitment to a simple but powerful mission—to be a strategic partner in their success."

Ares Real Estate is one of the world's most scaled and diversified vertically integrated real estate managers with approximately €103 billion in assets under management as of September 30, 2025. Marq manages a portfolio of approximately 2,000 properties totaling more than 600 million sqm.
