Valued at approximately €282 mln, the agreement—originally signed at the end of May 2026—has now closed, facilitating the launch of AFI’s new retail park division, AFI Value Park.

The six newly acquired assets will operate under the AFI Value Park brand while maintaining their specific local identifiers: AFI Value Park Baia Mare, AFI Value Park Bârlad, AFI Value Park Ploiești, AFI Value Park Roman, AFI Value Park Sfântu Gheorghe, and AFI Value Park Zalău. Together with AFI Value Park Arad (inaugurated in 2023), these properties form the new national AFI Value Park network.

Over the coming months, AFI will implement its established standards for property management, leasing, asset management, and tenant relations across the new network. With this expansion, the AFI Value Park network now totals seven assets and over 155,000 m2 of GLA.
