Manova Partners has sold the Amazon Returns Center in Sereď, Slovakia, to Erste Realitní Renta, a fund managed by the Slovak branch of Erste Asset Management. The 62,245 sqm logistics facility was sold on behalf of a separate account, with the parties agreeing not to disclose the sale price.


The facility is located 40 minutes northeast of Bratislava in Sereď and serves as part of Amazon's European distribution network. The property offers transport links to key Slovakian and international logistics hubs.

This was Manova Partners' first investment in Slovakia, acquired in 2017 under the GLL Real Estate Partners brand. The property generated stable income throughout the holding period, and the sale realizes the value creation and exit strategy defined at acquisition.

"With this transaction, we have successfully implemented the strategy defined for our mandate while further consolidating our strong market position in the CEE region," said Katarina Horvathova, Head of Transactions CEE at Manova Partners. "We have been investing in Central and Eastern Europe for over two decades and continue to see fundamentals for logistics real estate."

With this sale, Manova Partners' transaction volume in 2025 exceeds €530 million. Manova currently holds 14 office and 20 logistics properties in the region with a volume of around €1.5 billion and an occupancy rate of 96%. It has over 20 years of investment history in the CEE and has completed transactions worth €4.1 billion.
