The DCT portfolio is highly complementary to Prologis’ existing portfolio in terms of product quality, location and growth potential. The DCT portfolio includes the following:
- 71 million square foot owned and managed operating portfolio
- 7.5 million square feet of development, redevelopment and value-added projects
- 305 acres of land in pre-development with an estimated build-out potential of over 4.5 million square feet and 131 acres of land under contract, or option, with a build-out potential of over 1.6 million square feet
“We have tremendous respect and admiration for what the DCT team has accomplished in transforming their organization into a premier logistics company," said Hamid R. Moghadam, chairman and chief executive officer, Prologis. “They have created significant value through thoughtful market realignment, strong operating performance and smart development.
