MEC, the retail real estate specialist and national market leader for the operation of retail parks, will continue to be responsible for the manage-ment of six retail locations in the KGAL Investment Management portfo-lio. In addition, the management of two further locations will be trans-ferred to MEC. The two companies have now signed an agreement to continue and expand their existing partnership. With the management package transferred to MEC, the Düsseldorf-based retail real estate spe-cialist operates over 130,000 m² of lettable retail space for KGAL.
The eight retail properties are regionally established retail parks that are popular with consumers. They include Erding Park in Erding, Ziel in Hen-nigsdorf, Donaumeile in Donauwörth, Zentrum Schönweide in Berlin, Activ Carré in Brackenheim, Waibl in Waiblingen, the retail park in Roth and the SeeRhein Center in Konstanz. All locations have a mature tenant structure consisting of well-known retail companies. These include retail-ers such as Kaufland, Deichmann, dm and C&A.
"Team MEC is proud that we have once again been able to convince our long-standing client KGAL of the quality of our services as a specialist in the operation of retail properties. This success is thanks to our employ-ees, who deliver top performance for retail real estate every day," says Christian Schröder, COO of MEC, looking forward to further cooperation in the long-standing business relationship. André Zücker, Managing Di-rector of KGAL Investment Management, adds: "With MEC, we have decided to continue a cooperation based on trust and continuity. Thanks to its expertise and interdisciplinary services, the company is the right partner for us to further develop our investments in successful retail properties."
