Meta Estate Trust announces the completion of a new investment in a significant commercial project: a retail park located near Bucharest, in the commune of Ciolpani, Ilfov County, along the Bucharest–Ploiești (DN1) corridor. The asset is currently in the development phase. Meta Estate Trust has acquired a 76 percent stake in the project vehicle through which the investment is being carried out.
The remaining shares are held by the developer (12 percent) and an additional strategic partner (12 percent) with a passive role, completing the shareholder structure.
The total estimated value of Meta Estate Trust’s investment is approximately 2,000,000 euro. The project, already under development, is scheduled for delivery in Q4 2025 and will become operational in early 2026.
Alexandru Bonea, CEO of Meta Estate Trust, stated: “The Ciolpani retail park is our first development of this kind and marks the beginning of a series of investments in partnership with an international retailer. The chosen location and tenant mix directly address a real need in the local community, which gives us confidence in the efficiency and success of this investment. Upon completion, we estimate that the asset will generate gross annual income of over 350,000 euro, further solidifying Meta Estate Trust’s position in the leased commercial asset segment. This investment aligns with Meta Estate Trust’s strategy to diversify its portfolio and strengthen its presence in high-potential real estate sectors served by stable, market-anchored tenants.”
The project is financed through a balanced mix of equity, partner contributions, and an investment loan contracted with Banca Transilvania, with a minimum 10-year maturity. This structure ensures long-term financial stability and flexibility based on evolving macroeconomic conditions.
