Following a tender, Multi Corporation has been appointed a new property and asset manager for Central in Bratislava as of November 1. The shopping centre in the capital of Slovakia, with 36,000 sqm of GLA, is owned by Allianz with the long-term strategic management overseen on its behalf by Allianz Real Estate. Multi will be part of repositioning and upgrading Central and optimising the shopping centre’s occupancy level.

The shopping mall has four floors and is adjacent to the main tram and bus stations of the city, with a direct connection to a hotel, an office tower, a medical centre and a congress centre. Central opened in October 2012. Central’s local team will be supported by Multi’s range of specialist teams, based in Multi Corporation’s headquarter in Amsterdam. Since 1982, Multi has delivered over 200 real estate project assets across 13 countries in Europe and Turkey and drives value for its clients, tenant partners and local communities in the more than 80 assets it manages.

“We are very excited to have been appointed property and asset management of Central in Bratislava. We see a lot of opportunities to drive value in the shopping centre and we are sure that we can unlock this in the years to come,” says Luca Maganuco, Senior Managing Director of Multi in Italy, Hungary and Slovakia.
