Longpoint Partners, a vertically integrated private equity real estate manager headquartered in Boston, is expanding its activities into the European market. Specialising in the acquisition and operation of infill logistics properties, the company plans investments of approximately EUR 375 million in Germany and the Netherlands within this context.
The legal support for the realisation of this expansion was provided by the international law firm Greenberg Traurig. The advisory scope included setting up the European platform, which encompasses the management and advisory structures in the countries involved.
Strategic Alignment and Geographical Presence
Longpoint Partners focuses on infill logistics properties in strategically relevant markets. This orientation is now being transferred to European metropolitan regions. The focus is on locations that have high relevance for logistics processes due to their urban density and infrastructural connections.

Greenberg Traurig's legal advice extended to the implementation of the necessary legal frameworks for Longpoint Partners' operational units in Europe. A cross-location team from the law firm, with expertise from the Berlin and Amsterdam offices, was involved. With this structure, Longpoint Partners underscores its intention to establish a permanent presence in these key markets and to implement the targeted investments effectively.
The move into Europe marks a significant expansion of Longpoint Partners' corporate strategy, which has traditionally been anchored in the US market. The focus on urban logistics segments reflects the current need for efficient supply chain solutions, particularly in densely populated areas.
