WDP obtains full ownership of Luxembourg platform through asset swap with Luxembourg State
"
WDP has completed an asset swap with the Luxembourg State that results in 100% ownership of WDP Luxembourg SA. The transaction was structured as a balance sheet neutral swap, whereby WDP acquired the State's 45% stake in WDP Luxembourg SA, resulting in full ownership of the former joint venture, and subsequently sold the logistics site in Foetz, acquired in 20251, to the Luxembourg State. The two transactions, completed under normal market conditions, contribute to the streamlining of WDP's Group structure and support the future development of activities in the Grand Duchy.
Our partnership with the Luxembourg State has been instrumental in establishing a strong logistics platform in the Grand Duchy. We have developed high-quality logistics infrastructure at the Eurohub and unlocked the potential of this region as an important gateway. Full ownership now reflects the success of this cooperation and provides a solid foundation for further growth. Joost Uwents - CEO
Acquisition of the Luxembourg State's 45% shareholding in WDP Luxembourg SA WDP entered the Luxembourg market in 20162
in a joint venture with the Luxembourg State to develop logistics infrastructure in the Eurohub Sud and Eurohub Centre parks in, respectively, Bettembourg-Dudelange and Contern. Since then, the joint-venture has grown into a multimodal logistics hub of around 175 million euros3, spread across 5 logistics assets totalling around 140,000 m² leasable area.
As the initial objectives of the joint venture have been achieved, the Luxembourg State decided to sell its 45% shareholding in WDP Luxembourg SA to WDP NV's wholly owned subsidiary WDP Invest NV. As a result, WDP Luxembourg SA is now fully owned and consolidated within the WDP Group, further streamlining the Group's structure.
