We are pleased to announce that Atrato Group has advised Blue Owl Capital on its £467 million acquisition of an Asda commercial property portfolio, comprising twenty freehold supermarkets and a UK distribution centre. All assets were acquired on a triple-net lease basis.
This transaction represents our first supermarket real estate deal since the internalisation of Supermarket Income REIT earlier this year and reinforces our market-leading role in the supermarket and essential retail segment. The Atrato team continues to provide specialist investment, structuring, and advisory expertise to our institutional capital partners.
Ben Green, Principal at Atrato Group, commented:
“Atrato is proud to have supported Blue Owl in this significant asset acquisition from Asda, allowing them to meaningfully grow their presence in the UK grocery property sector. This transaction highlights Atrato’s expertise in the supermarket and triple net lease property sectors and its commitment to delivering value for clients across the commercial real estate landscape.”
The Atrato team was led by Head of Commercial Real Estate, Ollie Mottram.
