We Support Social Projects
ARETE Group and DB Schenker are not only cooperating on a business level, but also jointly supporting social projects in their local area. In a current project, in cooperation with Tomas Slavata, we have succeeded in making the life of children from the children’s Home in the UA Vinnycja more pleasant. Due to the war, the children have a temporary home in Liberec, and together we organised their transportation to a sports weekend in Nova Ves near Bečov nad Teplou. We hope that they forgot the worries of everyday life for a while and enjoyed a pleasant weekend.
Production shifts from the East and new logistics routes will help real estate investment in Central Europe, says Svoboda of Arete

Reportage on ARETE industrial parks
Our new development projects compensate for the lack of quality industrial real estate. The relocation of multinational companies to the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic generates a new demand for production and storage facilities. ARETE Park in Valašské Meziříčí, which will be completed in 4 weeks and will take a total of 11 months to build, will be DB Schenker’s main distribution center for JACOBS DOUWE EGBERTS.

Our earnings will not be threatened by rising European interest rates
You can read about the exceptionally high appreciation of the ARETE INDUSTRIAL fund at the end of 2021, the low share of bank loans to the value of the fund’s assets (LTV) and the fact that any increase in EUR interest rates will not significantly negatively affect the fund’s performance objectives, in the comment of our colleague Dr. Josef Vojta for Hospodářské noviny.
Alternative investments in the Ekonomika+ programme on Slovak TV TA3
According to the OECD, Transportation and Storage are among the essential branches of national economies (besides e.g. healthcare, defense or social care). Industrial and logistics parks, which are the focus of our third fund, currently bring some of the highest returns in the field of alternative investments. Which investments are worth having in times of crisis and what return is our fund currently showing? Our colleague Josef Vojta was Lenka Buchláková’s guest on the program Ekonomika+ on Televízia TA3.

The third fund of the ARETE Group starts development in a brand-new industrial zone in Rokycany, right next to the D5 highway
The third fund of the ARETE Group starts development in a brand-new industrial zone in Rokycany, right next to the D5 highway. Once completed, it will offer 25,000 sqm of premium rental space in a modern industrial park. The investment will reach almost EUR 30 million. The third fund of the ARETE Group focused on quality industrial and logistics assets in the region of Central and Eastern Europe has started the first construction of two halls of a new industrial park after acquiring land with a building permit in the industrial zone of Rokycany, just off exit 62 of the D5 highway. Upon completion, nearly 25,000 sqm of lease space will be ready for tenants, with an above-standard storage height of 15 meters. “The development in a premium location near the D5 motorway is our third fund’s response to the growing demand for rental space in modern industrial parks. In parallel to the start of construction, we are completing negotiations with the park’s key tenants. The unique combination of an investment fund with our own development team enables us to deliver the fund’s new development projects on time and within approved budgets. We are thus able to provide the fund’s investors with one of the best long-term investment returns on the market,” said Lubor Svoboda, co-founder of ARETE Group. “The logistics park will offer a total of 25,000 sqm of premium space with an above-standard storage height of 15 meters. The location right next to the D5 highway has long been one of the most sought-after in the Czech Republic. As the new park is located right on the outskirts of Rokycany, it also provides future tenants with good access to the local labor market. BREEAM certification and the installation of renewable energy equipment will also be a matter of course. We consider these activities essential to achieving long-term sustainability and meeting environmental standards. We plan to have the park fully completed by the end of the first half of 2023,” concludes Robert Ides, the second co-founder of ARETE Group.
