URBZ Capital acquires four IOS properties

URBZ Capital, in partnership with NW1 Partners, has acquired four Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS) properties. 

Barendrecht IOS - URBZ Capital

These acquisitions add over 115,000 n2 of IOS space to their portfolio, with the closings finalised in mid-2025. This move aligns with their goal of building a top-tier, institutional-grade IOS platform throughout the Netherlands.
The acquired assets are located in key areas: Rotterdam (Barendrecht), Venlo, Gouda, and Alphen aan den Rijn. Three of these properties are in prime urban locations within the Randstad region, while the fourth is situated in Venlo, a major logistics hub. These sites are strategically placed in attractive core markets, from established logistics centres to urban infill areas, securing a strong presence in vital supply chain corridors and urban environments.
The acquisitions consist of a mix of long-term leased, income-generating assets with strong tenants like RECO, AB Texel, and Qbuzz, offering immediate opportunities for value enhancement. These transactions are consistent with URBZ Capital's broader strategy of targeting well-located IOS assets that have solid tenant bases and inherent growth potential.
Ali Nassiri, co-founder and managing partner at URBZ Capital, said: “These additions significantly bolster our IOS footprint, reinforcing our market presence across the Netherlands and empowering future scalability of our IOS real estate platform in partnership with NW1. With these latest acquisitions, the venture now owns and operates approximately 20 IOS sites across key consumption and logistics submarkets in the Netherlands, totalling more than 400,000 m2 of site area. We remain highly active in the market with a strong pipeline and have ample capacity to continue growing our platform.”
Isabelle Schols, investment manager at URBZ Capital, added: “We are very pleased to have closed these transactions. These assets align seamlessly with our IOS investment strategy. They enhance our presence across critical logistics corridors, provide a balanced rental income profile, and position us strongly for ongoing portfolio expansion.”
