Aberdeen to fully acquire Tritax by 2029

Aberdeen Investments will take full ownership of Tritax in 2029, gradually increasing its stake from an initial 60% in 2020 to 100%. 

Logistics

This increased investment benefits both companies: Aberdeen gains specialized access to the supply chain sector, and Tritax leverages Aberdeen's global investment knowledge. 
Tritax will maintain control over its investment decisions, and its daily operations, team, products, and entrepreneurial culture will remain unchanged, ensuring stability for its stakeholders.
To support its growth in the logistics sector and manage its approximately £9 bn (€10.5 bn) AUM, Tritax has also promoted seven individuals to partner roles, effective April 1, 2026.
These new partners will bring additional expertise and innovative thinking to the leadership team. The new partners are Hana Beard (company secretary), Mehdi Bourassi (CFO Tritax Management), Ian Brown (head of Corporate Strategy and IR), Chase French (head of Data & Modelling), Nick Ireland (fund manager TLLF), Tim O’Reilly (head of Strategic Power), and Henry Stratton (head of Research & Strategy).
Henry Franklin, COO at Tritax Management, commented: “Resilient supply chain infrastructure is critical to keeping the UK economy moving. Aberdeen’s latest commitment marks an exciting next step for our business, enabling us to continue to capitalise on the compelling structural drivers in our sector with the long-term support of a leading global asset manager, whilst maintaining Tritax’s agile, entrepreneurial approach. I am delighted to welcome seven new partners from across the business, as we bring forward the next generation of talent.”
Anne Breen, global head of Real Estate at Aberdeen Investments, said: “Tritax has been an excellent addition to Aberdeen’s extensive real estate capabilities, so I am delighted this agreement will see us continuing to work closely with the team. Our additional investment enhances Aberdeen’s scale as a specialist real estate manager, offering the potential to diversify and grow future earnings through direct access to the dynamic, fast-growing supply chain sector.”
