Logistic Properties of the Americas (NYSE American: LPA)
(together with its subsidiaries, “LPA” or the “Company”), announced
today that it had entered into a strategic partnership with
Inmobiliaria y Constructora Alas, S.A. de C.V. (“Falcon”), a
leading real estate developer in Mexico, marking LPA’s entry into
the Mexican market. The partnership with Falcon enables LPA to
establish a strong foothold in Mexico’s rapidly growing
manufacturing industry by adding two operating properties with a
combined gross lease area of 257,677 square feet, anchored by DHL
as a tenant, to LPA’s portfolio.
Furthermore, this strategic alliance will expand the Company’s
regional presence by granting LPA immediate access to Falcon’s
extensive experience in Mexico’s industrial and logistics market
gained through more than 65 years of operation, firmly established
relationships with Mexico’s key landowners, and a solid local
network of clients and developers.
This transaction, which is expected to close in early 2025,
grants LPA an initial operational scale and a solid foundation to
develop top-tier logistics solutions for new clients in Mexico. The
partnership with Falcon underscores LPA's commitment to a value
enhancing expansion strategy in Latin America and further
diversifies the Company’s regional vertically integrated real
estate platform.
"We are thrilled to partner with Falcon to enter the dynamic and
rapidly growing Mexican market, which is increasingly crucial to
the global supply chain,” said Esteban Saldarriaga, CEO of LPA.
“This alliance is a pivotal step in our expansion strategy and
demonstrates LPA’s ability to effectively collaborate with strong
local partners to develop Class A assets and bolt on existing asset
portfolios in Mexico. With Falcon’s local market insight and
extensive design-to-build expertise, we are enhancing our ability
to deliver significant long-term value to our investors and bring
best-in-class logistics solutions to some of the world’s leading
companies operating in Mexico.”
Francisco Alvarez Rojo, Co-CEO of Falcon, added,
"We are excited to join forces with LPA to bring their unique
regional perspective and expertise to Mexico, to develop and
operate world-class industrial and logistics real estate. This
partnership leverages our combined strengths to ensure LPA’s
successful entry into Mexico’s vibrant and rapidly expanding
market. We look forward to supporting LPA’s growth, and to
providing premium facilities that meet the evolving needs of
top-tier customers in Mexico.”
This strategic partnership reinforces LPA’s position as a
regional leader in the industrial and logistics real estate sector,
supporting the Company’s commitment to delivering high-performance,
EDGE-certified facilities that promote both regional economic
growth and sustainability initiatives.
