20 december 2023

La Française Real Estate Managers (REM), acting on behalf of two collective real estate investment vehicles, and EDF Invest have acquired the Memphis building, a mixed-use property, office and retail, located at 111 avenue de France in the 13th arrondissement of Paris. Asset management is entrusted to the Institutional division of La Française REM.

Located in the heart of the ZAC (development zone) Paris Rive Gauche, in a mixed business and retail environment that welcomes large national and international companies, the Memphis building is well serviced by public transportation (Metro Line 14/RER Line C – Bibliothèque François Mitterrand Station and Line 6 - Quai de la Gare Station).

Fully renovated in 2021 by architects Ory and Saguez & Partners, the 8-storey building is one of three composing the M7 property complex. It develops 14,415 m2, including 10,059 m2 of office space and 4,239 m2 of retail space, and offers many green outdoor spaces (two terraces and a rooftop of 400 m2) and services (café, restaurant, concierge, “cool working” space, bicycle garages).

The Memphis building is BREEAM Excellent certified and has the WiredScore Gold label. It underwent major renovations to improve its energy performance, including the installation of high-performance fan convectors and energy efficient lighting, and the replacement of air handling units. A plan to improve the energy performance of the retail space is also planned in 2024.

The asset is fully leased to eight tenants operating in a variety of sectors such as biotechnology research and development, cosmetics, the agri-food industry, digital transformation consulting and sports equipment.

Philippe Depoux, President of La Française Real Estate Managers, concluded :We are extremely satisfied with the conclusion of this investment which associates our collective real estate investment vehicles and EDF Invest. We sincerely thank EDF Invest for its confidence. The Memphis building summarizes well all the fundamentals expected by La Française REM. Its centrality and the quality of its renovations and services are all factors that should support the attractiveness and valuation of the asset.

Assia Oudni, Investment Director - Real Estate, EDF Invest, added : This acquisition is consistent with our belief in the necessity for high quality and flexible office space for tenants and reflects our confidence in the market fundamentals of the zone. EDF Invest is delighted with this partnership alongside La Française REM.
