MEC was commissioned for this by its long-standing client Nuveen Real Estate. This has already been the second new Nuveen mandate within a few weeks. Since August of this year, the addition of the Remsgalerie Schwäbisch Gmünd has also broadened the MEC portfolio. “We are very pleased about the trust of our customer and the new contract. With the additional location in Linden, our growth strategy continues to pick up speed,” says Christian Schröder, COO of MEC.

“MEC has presented a convincing concept for the management of the site and has repeatedly demonstrated its competence and efficiency in the colaboration so far. Together we will further develop the center and utilize the full potential of the retail property,” explains Björn Fraeb, Head of Investment Management, Retail Northern Europe at Nuveen Real Estate.
