The portfolio is triple-net leased to Distribution Casino France.
Christopher Mertlitz, the head of WP Carey鈥檚 European investments, said: 鈥淲e are thrilled to continue our positive momentum in Europe with the completion of another off-market grocery retail sale-leaseback, an asset class which has proven its resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic.
鈥淪ale-leasebacks enable companies to easily unlock the full value of their real estate and redeploy into their core businesses. We welcome the addition of these high-quality essential retail assets to our growing portfolio, and we look forward to building on our partnership with our newest tenant.鈥�
