Prologis launches $1.1B pan-European logistics venture with La Caisse

Prologis has partnered with La Caisse to create Prologis Logistics Investment Venture Europe, a pan-European joint venture initially seeded with €1 billion of logistics properties. La Caisse holds a 70% interest whilst Prologis serves as operating partner. The venture expands Prologis's fee-earning asset management and development operations across key European logistics markets. Combined with a recent $1.6 billion build-to-suit joint venture with GIC, the move broadens Prologis's role beyond landlord to operating and capital partner. However, the company's investment narrative still hinges on near-term challenges including elevated vacancy rates and cautious tenant decision-making, which could pressure rent growth and same-store net operating income. Prologis's narrative projects $10 billion revenue and $3.6 billion earnings by 2029.
