Europa Capital, London, and PBG Frankfurt, are pleased to announce the extension of the lease to Adecco, the world’s leading provider of HR Solutions, for 6,137 sq. metres in their ‘Cubus’ office investment in Düsseldorf. This early agreement to extend their lease means Adecco remains the largest tenant in Cubus.
Europa Capital purchased the architecturally-striking property in November 2013 in Europa Fund IV, since which time it has, with the support of P.B.G., successfully pursued its asset management strategy.
The building provides 16,800 sq. metres of office space, arranged over 12 floors around an imposing atrium and enclosed within a freestanding glass façade.
A number of other prominent new tenants, including YKK, lawyers CLP, and Fischer HRM, have been added to the tenant line-up, while further existing tenants have extended their leases.
Furthermore, Europa Capital has implemented the concept designed by P.B.G. for the enhancement of the sustainability rating to achieve DGNB GOLD pre-certification.
The cooperation between Europa Capital and P.B.G began as far back as 1999 since which time the partnership has executed over €500 million of successful investments in Germany.
Commenting on the transaction, Nic Fox, Partner and Head of Europa Capital’s Middle Europe Region, said: “We are pleased to have retained Adecco as our anchor tenant for another six years. Through the combination of new lettings and lease extensions, we have been able to significantly improve the income profile since acquisition to realise value enhancement for our investors.”
