About

CTP is a full-service developer and manager of industrial and logistics parks. Our portfolio covers 10.9 million sqm of leasable space in 10 markets across Europe, connecting the Black Sea to the North Sea, making CTP the largest listed owner of logistics and industrial real estate in continental Europe. Our extensive client mix has over 1,000 local and global companies representing a diverse range of business sectors, namely manufacturing, logistics and R&D. As our business model is build to own, we develop strong, long lasting relationships with our clients and grow with them — approximately two-thirds of all new business comes from our existing clients. As long-term owners and managers of our properties, success isn’t just about leasable area growth; quality and sustainability are paramount and a key part of how we do business and our Parkmaker philosophy. Our entire portfolio is BREEAM certified 'Very Good' and higher, making us one of the most sustainable developers in the region. CTP has been rolling our solar PV, currently with 42 MWp installed and on track to add 100 MWp by year-end 2023. CTP benefits from an investment grade rating from S&P (BBB- with outlook stable) and Moody’s (Baa3 with outlook stable). We are one of the largest issuers of Green Bonds in Europe; since first tapping the bond market in 2020, CTP has issued €4.25 billion over eight tranches. CTP’s portfolio is valued at €12 billion and generates a strong cash flow, which together with our market leading development YoC of 11% for new projects, uniquely positions us for future growth.
