Industrial Real Estate: an Investment that makes Long-Term Sense
29. 07.2026
Industrial properties are now one of the segments that experienced investors are paying increasing attention to – especially in times when stock markets are fluctuating and residential properties are reaching their limits. In the region of Central and Western Europe, the Accolade Funds platform has long demonstrated stability in this sector.
A portfolio is being developed under its brand, the cornerstone of which is the Accolade Industrial Fund – a fund of qualified investors founded in 2014 by a pair of Czech entrepreneurs, Milan Kratina and Zdeněk Šoustal. Since then, it has undergone various phases of the economic cycle and repeatedly proved that its strategy works, even in rapidly changing market conditions: over the past five years, Accolade Funds has achieved an average annual appreciation of over 9.7% in the crown class. In the first quarter of this year, it added another 2.6%. It currently manages 42 modern industrial parks in 6 European countries, worth 2.3 billion euros, with tenants such as Amazon, Allegro, InPost, DHL and Goodyear.
“The example of Accolade Industrial Fund illustrates that quality projects, tenants and a transparent and responsible approach to management bring investors clear results. The assets in our portfolio are inextricably linked to the real economy operation. Combined with long-term lease agreements with strong brands, this translates into a stable return,” explains Tomáš Hanáček, Chief Business Development Officer of Accolade Funds.
The strength of the platform is based on a robust portfolio, a conservative approach to management and diversification, and this across sectors (light manufacturing, retail and e-commerce, logistics) and geographies – from the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland to Germany and the Netherlands to Spain, where the fund has recently been successfully expanding. However, more than a decade of the existence of the Accolade Industrial Fund is only the first chapter. The Accolade Funds brand is currently preparing additional investment products for various types of investors throughout Europe.
If you are interested in investments that combine stability, real assets and an interesting return, it is worth following where Accolade Funds is going next.
