“The properties have favorable tenancy consisting of large public and private companies within industries that have seen major tailwinds, including e-commerce and logistics, as well as stable recessionresistant industries such as food distribution, food production, and manufacturing.”

“Our investors will benefit from this well-leased diversified portfolio of institutional assets in locations with strong market fundamentals, in addition to a financing structure that allows for future acquisition flexibility,” said Steve Bailey, senior
portfolio manager for PGIM Real Estate’s U.S. core plus debt strategy.

“The portfolio’s diversification across markets and industrial subtypes will also help to mitigate any near-term negative impacts resulting from uncertainties surrounding COVID-19 and the related economic headwinds.”
