Goldman Sachs supports launch of big-box logistics developer Mirastar

Mirastar, a specialist pan-European developer, investor and manager of big-box logistics assets, has launched with an exclusive mandate from Goldman Sachs.

Mirastar is a joint venture between co-founders Ekaterina Avdonina, CEO, and Anthony Butler, CIO, and M7 Real Estate, a pan-European investor and asset manager.

Mirastar will source and target to acquire a sizeable portfolio of big-box logistics developments and investments in Europe in partnership with Goldman Sachs, primarily focused on core Western European markets. Leveraging M7’s existing platform, which spans 13 countries, Mirastar and Goldman Sachs will look to invest in both development opportunities as well as existing assets with some asset management opportunity.
