Meta Estate Trust plans to expand into the Romanian retail market

Meta Estate Trust, a holding company active in the Romanian real estate sector, announces its intention to invest EUR 10 million this year in the Romanian retail real estate sector. Meta Estate Trust’s retail investment plan includes the acquisition of retail parks completed with food anchors, fully operational, respectively with lease agreements concluded for periods of 10 – 15 years.

“We have been closely following the retail market in the country since the middle of last year, with the securing of the portfolio of four stand-alone assets that are to be developed and leased to the international food retail brand Penny. The evolution of the retail sector in recent months, both in terms of new developments and confirmations of expansion plans by large retailers, shows us that our decision to enter this market, as early as 2024, was a very inspired one. We are counting on the development of this sector in 2025 and we have a competitive advantage, we are very agile in analysis which allows us to make decisions quickly,” said Alexandru Bonea, CEO of Meta Estate Trust.

The investment selection criteria target projects completed or in the process of completion in 2025, with an investment value between EUR 2 and 6 million, which benefit from reference tenants.
