EQT Real Estate has acquired a logistics portfolio comprising 2.4 million square feet of space across key markets in the Southeast United States, further expanding its industrial real estate footprint in the country.
The company announced the acquisition recently, stating that the portfolio is located in strategically important logistics markets across the Southeast US. While financial details of the transaction were not disclosed, the acquisition adds significant scale to EQT Real Estate's logistics platform in one of the fastest-growing industrial regions in the country.
The Southeast US has emerged as a major hub for warehousing, distribution and supply chain operations due to its expanding population, growing consumer base, strong transportation infrastructure and access to major ports. The region has continued to attract investment from logistics operators, retailers and manufacturers seeking efficient distribution networks.
The acquisition comes as institutional investors remain focused on logistics and industrial assets, a sector that has shown resilience despite broader economic uncertainties. Demand for modern warehouse facilities continues to be supported by e-commerce activity, inventory management requirements and the ongoing reconfiguration of supply chains.
EQT Real Estate has been actively investing in logistics and industrial properties globally, targeting assets in locations with strong tenant demand and long-term growth potential. The latest acquisition further strengthens its presence in the US logistics market and expands its portfolio of income-generating industrial assets.
