A strategic entry into the German market

 

As a portfolio company of Urban Partners, 7R is strengthening its international footprint and launching operational activities in Germany. The newly created Head of Germany position is designed to ensure strong local expertise, market relationships and effective execution of development and investment projects.

Germany remains one of Europe’s most mature and liquid logistics markets. Stable demand driven by e-commerce, 3PL operators, manufacturing and nearshoring continues to translate into growing requirements for modern Grade-A warehouse space and tailor-made built-to-suit facilities.

 

Experience to accelerate growth

 

Martin Ohly joins 7R from Logicenters, where he served as General Manager & Head of Logistics. Throughout his career, he has held senior roles across leading international real estate organizations, overseeing investments, transactions, capital markets, leasing and portfolio management across Germany and Europe.

According to Andrzej Wroński, CEO of 7R, Ohly’s in-depth knowledge of the German market and local operating environment will be critical in executing the company’s ambitious growth plans. Entering a new market requires not only capital, but also trusted relationships and hands-on expertise.

 

Acquisitions, speculative developments and BTS at the core of the strategy

 

In his new role, Ohly will be responsible for building a sustainable logistics portfolio in Germany through acquisitions of existing assets, speculative developments, built-to-suit projects and joint venture partnerships.

7R focuses on delivering flexible and operationally efficient solutions that support tenants throughout the entire lifecycle of a property – from concept and construction to long-term use. This tenant-oriented approach is increasingly becoming a key differentiator in today’s competitive logistics real estate market.

 

ESG standards and scalable warehouse formats

 

ESG remains a central pillar of 7R’s strategy. The company consistently develops low-emission, energy-efficient buildings designed to reduce CO₂ footprints and operating costs for tenants. As sustainability criteria play a growing role in location decisions, such solutions are becoming a tangible competitive advantage.

7R’s portfolio includes large-scale logistics parks, Small Business Units and urban warehouse formats, enabling the company to flexibly serve a wide range of occupiers – from regional operators to global supply chain platforms.

 

Strong track record and international ambitions

 

To date, 7R has delivered more than 1.8 million sqm of modern logistics space, with an additional 2.5 million sqm currently in the pipeline. The launch of operations in Germany marks another step in building an international logistics platform and reinforces the company’s long-term growth ambitions across Europe.
