Located in the Södra Porten area within the Botkyrka municipality, the 29,400 sqm site will be developed speculatively to provide 21,716 sqm new commercial space under the company’s LiteHub banner, which focuses urban real estate opportunities.  

Six new business units offering ground and mezzanine warehousing with office and welfare space are aimed at local SMEs and national businesses expanding their footprint in the Stockholm region. The asset – which will be ready for occupation in Q2 2027 – has been designed for operational efficiency and will target the BREEAM Excellent sustainability accreditation.

“This opportunity fits the VELF 2 fund strategy on a number of levels. It is located within the southwestern Stockholm logistics corridor, 25 minutes from the city centre and adjacent to the E20 which connects with Gothenburg and Malmö with connections to the metro and upcoming Södertörn Crosslink. The site itself also marks the first development of the emerging new commercial cluster of Södra Porten in an area with a limited supply of modern space,” says Fredrik Salman, Investment Director – Nordics, at Verdion, and continues:

“Our LiteHub business units are being developed speculatively to appeal to a wide range of commercial and logistics occupiers, maximising the site footprint and achieving high standards of design and sustainability. This opportunity will be a strong addition to the fund and sets the tone for further VELF 2 acquisitions across Sweden.”

Verdion European Logistics Fund 2 (VELF 2) leverages Verdion’s vertically integrated team and technical expertise to undertake value-add opportunities in key markets across Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark. The fund closed at the end of 2024 having raised more than EUR 300 million of equity and is now well advanced in its deployment of capital and execution of business plans for each new asset.

“This is our third acquisition in quick succession for VELF 2, continuing significant capital allocation over the first 15 months of our investment period and complementing recent acquisitions in Cologne and Copenhagen. We remain focused on deploying the remainder of the fund over the course of this year, targeting opportunities near major population centres where Verdion’s technical expertise can unlock and transform existing urban sites,” says Simon Walter, Executive Director – Investment Management, at Verdion.
