Skanska has sold Buildings C and D of the Silesia Business Park, a four-building office complex in Katowice, Poland, for €59 million ($67 million).
The buyer is ISOC Group, a diversified real estate and infrastructure investment group based in Manila, Philippines. This is Skanska’s first CEE office divestment transaction to a Philippine investor. With the sale of buildings C and D, the developer has now sold all four properties in the Silesia Business Park complex. Buildings A and B were divested in 2015 to a Swedish investor.
“Over the last few years, the CEE commercial real estate market has seen an increasing flow of newcomers from Asia, South Africa and the Middle East. In 2016, Skanska divested a hotel in Warsaw to a Qatari investor, and now we are delighted to welcome our first partner from the Philippines. The growing awareness of Polish regional markets among newcomers is a very encouraging sign for the Polish and CEE investment market,” said Adrian Kar
