Israeli investor Delek Real Estate has bought a chain of retail properties in Germany from retailer Metro for (£176m).
Delek Real Estate is carrying out the German purchase through its sub-subsidiary Delek Global Real Estate, which is listed on AIM. The company is also seeking a partner to take a 20% stake in the deal.
Delek Global is buying 12 hypermarkets located on the outskirts of towns, mainly in the Rhine-Main area around Frankfurt. Ten of the hypermarkets were formerly owned by Wal-Mart and converted into the Real format. Real is the largest hypermarket group in Germany.
The purchase is being financed by non recourse debt of E230m (£167m) and the rest in cash. The gross rental income is E16.05m (£11.6m) a year.
