• FT Reports Prologis Bid on Blackstone’s Logistics Business

05 April 2022

According to the Financial Times, Prologis has made a bid on Blackstone’s €21 billion logistics and warehouse arm.

Prologis has allegedly made “a non-binding offer of a little over €21 billion” for Mileway, Blackstone’s European logistics business. This would make the deal the largest-ever private real estate transaction.

Blackstone recapitalised Mileway in February 2022, offering investors the option to retain or increase their shareholding, or exit for cash.

The Financial Times reported that Blackstone now has about six weeks to finalise a bid “that satisfies a number of conditions laid down by the funds selling Mileway.”

The news was first reported by React News and then picked up by FT.com.
