The property map of ZDR Investments funds has expanded this year, thanks to acquiring three retail parks in the towns of Prevalje, Ravne, and Slovenj Gradec in the northern part of Slovenia.
The three retail parks that have become part of the qualified investor fund's portfolio are located in the Slovenian Carinthia region near the border with Austria. The newest retail park is situated in Slovenj Gradec. It has been opened this year. The 4,928 sqm retail park is adjacent to a major road crossing the north of the country.
The largest retail park is in the town of Prevalje. The area of 7,474 sqm is leased by SPAR, discount chains Kik, TEDi, and other stores focused on daily necessities and discount goods.
A few kilometres from Prevalje there is the town of Ravne—an important industrial centre of the region with a steel plant employing nearly 4,000 people. A retail park covering an area of 2,975 sqm was built in 2022 right next to a residential area.
With the new retail parks, the number of properties in the funds has grown to 66, and the total value has exceeded 14 billion CZK (€24,04 million). The annual rental income has stabilised at 984 million CZK (€39 million) annually.
