Coming expansion of existing areas in Företagsparken
Growth prospects remain high ahead for Nordic PM
Mid-sized city centres bring positive chain effects
Insightful details provided on FöretagsparkenAt today’s Investor Days presentation, Fastator confirmed that its fastest growing holding, Företagsparken (SEK 900m in property value by the end of Q2 to SEK 3.6bn today), has bought properties at a 6% net initial yield or more.

Nevertheless, Företagsparken’s strategy of owning properties in smaller municipalities at higher yields (i.e. 7-8%) but with lower prospects for rental growth, remains.

Management also emphasised that a certain business volume is needed to satisfy a relevant amount of customers, and Nordic PM has reached that level. It is now widely present throughout Sweden, serving customers both within Fastator and outside (i.e. Nyfosa and Veidekke). A second argument for stro
