Argan

Argan is a property company specialized in logistics platforms with a portfolio of 3,000,000 square metres. 35% of the 87 logistics assets held are located in the Ile de France.

In 2020, it is part of the closed circle of REITs whose share price has shown a positive performance with an increase of more than 7%.

At 11/05/2021, the French leader in logistics assets had a share price of €84.40 euros, which rose by  0.96%  in 2021. The market capitalisation is €1,920 million, representing a discount of more than 15%  compared to the revalued net assets.

Logistics assets have been on the rise in recent months. First, there is the rise of e-commerce  and the development of the online sales sector, a growing success in response to a new consumer habit. These changes are correlated with the  ecological transition and the desire to reduce the carbon footprint in the face of the tightening of environmental rules. These ecological and societal issues are also added to the need for storage assets closest to the consumer,  the urban logistics of the last kilometer.
