The construction of a new Burger King restaurant at Ganddal in Sandnes is now underway, with a planned opening in December 2024. The restaurant will include a drive-thru and modern facilities and will be an attractive addition to the food offer in the area.



The new Burger King will also enhance the existing retail area, which already includes a Rema 1000 store and a Dolly Dimple's restaurant. In addition, there are charging stations from Uno-X for electric cars and a car wash from Glitra, making the area a complete stop for both food, charging and car washing. With these new offers, it is expected that Ganddal will attract even more visitors when everything is ready in December 2024.

Total Betong and K2 – RELOG Industrieiendom commemorate a significant moment with the initial dig for the forthcoming new building for Volvo Maskin Service Stavanger at Vagle. The anticipated handover of the building is estimated for April 2025.



Since our last update, the project has undergone some changes. One of the most noticeable changes is the decision to relocate the building one hundred meters to the north. This strategic shift will not only provide the tenant, VMS, with a more optimal and tailored building, but it will also allow the developer to better utilize the remaining area.

First Dig at Vagle

RELOG has developed several innovative energy concepts to make the energy we have available more efficient. <a href="https://youtu.be/s0iCcfHpdb8 Play Movies">Play movie</a>



Energy produced by solar cells on the roof and facade supplies our buildings with locally produced and renewable energy. This will in the summer cover 100% of the buildings' energy needs during the sunniest hours. We make use of both electrical and thermal energy storage and optimize the use of the energy stores with the help of artificial intelligence.



Local resources are utilized to the full, such as by us using required water reservoirs for sprinkler systems for thermal energy storage of cooling energy in summer and heating energy in winter.



The energy concepts are sustainable for the environment and economy and have been implemented on a large scale at the distribution center at Vinterbro, which is RELOG's largest building in Norway with 69,393 square meters of lettable area.

At Holtskogen business park outside Oslo, the fine sorting facility is now being built at approx. 13.000 sq. m GBA. The plant will be able to sort 90.000 tonnes of plastic packaging a year when it is completed in the first half of 2025.



We are very happy and humbled to be the preferred choice for Plastretur and Tomra when it came to location and landlord. There were several properties that were assessed in the early phase on various criteria that were important to Plastretur. It has been a very good planning phase with many skilled people involved, which now culminates in a great future building.



New Norwegian plastics industry at Holtskogen



The business will collect unsorted plastic from the municipalities for fine sorting in the facility at Holtskogen. Here, the plastic will be sorted into seven different qualities.



The building itself is essentially divided into three different functions with a reception hall for incoming plastics, sorting and a finished goods warehouse. The next step in the value chain is the recycling itself, where the plastic is turned into plastic granules that are sold to the manufacturing industry.

RELOG AS and Plastretur have entered into an agreement on the establishment of a new plastic sorting facility in Holtskogen Næringspark, which is 30 minutes in distance from Oslo. The project, which has a total investment of approximately MNOK 650 and can sort up to 90.000 tonnes of plastic a year, will contribute to a change of pace in the Norwegian circular economy for plastics.



This is primarily an important project for plastic handling in Norway, where the majority is sent abroad for sorting. Holtskogen was chosen amid strong competition from other potential properties, and we are therefore very satisfied that Plastretur chose Holtskogen Næringspark and RELOG as a collaboration partner.



Synergy effects and environmental focus RELOG has a strong focus on providing good infrastructure in its business parks in Norway, which in turn attracts solid players such as Plastretur. With the right location, this type of operator saves transport costs and the environment, which is of course important in the future. In addition, we want to create positive synergy effects with the players established in the business park. At Holtskogen, for example, we collaborate with Østfold Energi to find energy-efficient solutions where we can use excess heat from the data center in the business park, which can in turn be used to heat water and air for future establishments.



Work is now underway on the design of the building with the aim of completing the framework application in October 2022. The final investment decision on whether the plant will be built will be made at the beginning of 2023.

The CEO of RELOG, Christian Wist, comments: “We are very pleased with the result for the year 2021 and we are optimistic about the future. The expected increase in rental income is largely driven by the company's project portfolio, which is of significant size. The project portfolio ensures RELOG a stable and good growth in revenues and values ​​in the years ahead ».



One of the major events during the year 2021 was the transaction with a major portfolio purchase of properties for approximately NOK 1.3 billion with a net weighted yield of approx. 6%.

The transaction was strategically important for RELOG as it increased the geographical diversification of the real estate portfolio.
