Bulgaria marks the seventh country in which CTP opens operations, stretching the company's portfolio from the German border to the Black Sea.


CTP has entered the Bulgarian market with plans to reach 100,000 sqm of leased space by the end of 2021. Bulgaria is CTP’s seventh market in the Central European region, extending the company’s geographical footprint from the North Sea to the Black Sea.
 
“Bulgaria is a crossroads between Europe and the thriving economies of the Middle East, Russia and Asia” said Remon Vos, CTP’s Group CEO. “Its GDP growth is a healthy three per cent, and over 90 per cent of that GDP is from industrials and services. By any standard Bulgaria is a promising country for investment in business parks, offices and logistics centres.”

CTP

Born in the Netherlands in 1970, Remon Vos founded CTP in 1998 with the goal to develop A-class industrial properties in the Czech Republic. Remon developed and grew the CTPark Network to become the largest integrated system of full-service business parks in CEE. At over 5 million sqm of lettable area, and sufficient land to grow to 8 million m2, the CTPark Network offers 5 unique property types that can accommodate wide variety businesses from 450 sqm incubators to 50,000 sqm built-to-suit manufacturing facilities or 100,000 sqm distribution centres. CTP is a long-term investor and partner to its clients, with an innovative and entrepreneurial approach. This focus has resulted in 70% of all new business coming from existing clients. CTP has also developed unique, high-quality office and housing projects, such as the award-winning Spielberk, and the unique student housing concept Domeq in Brno. Remon continues to lead the company at full-speed, with big plans for the future.

Vladimir Gurdjieff, CTP’s Bulgaria Country Manager, explains that the move responds to demand by several existing CTP clients. “Our initial focus will be on the Sofia metropolitan area and on the 3PL, distribution, pharmaceutical and FMCG sectors,” he says. “We expect to have a team of six property professionals in place by Christmas. Our growth plans are ambitious: 100,000 square metres by the end of 2021. We will achieve this by a combination of acquisition and brand-new development.”
 
CTP now operates in seven European countries. With Bulgaria, it is also the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Romania, and Poland.
