Property overview

The Fund will acquire a 100% interest in the Port Adelaide Distribution Centre (the ‘Property’) – one of Adelaide’s largest and most prominent industrial estates.

A foundational part of the industrial landscape in Adelaide, key attributes of the Property include:

  • 32-hectare land holding with 13 freestanding buildings totalling 174,580 sqm of gross lettable area.
  • 17 high-quality tenants across 21 tenancies, helping enhance income stability.
  • Purchased at a 69% discount to replacement cost, with c.68% of the purchase price underpinned by land value.
  • 93% occupied with a WALE (by income) of 3.4 years5, offering the opportunity for near-term rental reversion.
  • Value add upside from active management and subdivision potential subject to council approval.

The Property accommodates multiple tenants, including national and multi-national companies such as Visy, Toll and Spendless Shoes, several of whom depend on its unique locational and logistical advantages for their operations. This multi-tenant structure combined with the property’s infrastructure-like significance is expected to generate diversified and stable cashflows.

Location overview

The Property occupies a prime location in Gillman, South Australia; approximately 12 km northwest of the Adelaide CBD within the state’s key industrial and logistics hub of Port Adelaide.

Situated within Adelaide’s North West precinct, the Property has strategic proximity to the harbour, including the Port of Adelaide and Osborne Naval Shipyard, interstate rail networks and major arterial roads including the Port River Expressway.

The precinct currently has the second lowest industrial vacancy rate in Australia7 and limited new supply is expected, positioning the Property for continued rental growth driven by robust tenant demand.

Significant infrastructure investment committed by the South Australian Government and large-scale defence projects at the Osborne Naval Shipyard are also expected to drive continuing industrial demand in the Port Adelaide area in the years ahead.
