A rigorous and innovative vision

Value creation

Etche believes that asset portfolio management should be based firmly on a constant quest to increase the value of all its assets.

It creates value primarily by applying a rigorous and dynamic methodology to each building, which often begins with an audit of the existing situation.

Proactive asset management relies on analyzing the building and constantly challenging its performance and uses.

Ensuring that each building complies fully with increasingly stringent regulations and incorporating facilities and services that anticipate future market trends also contribute to increasing its value. (Re)valuing an asset increases its appeal and provides the opportunity to stand out distinctively in an increasingly competitive market environment.

At the same time, it is vital to support tenants and build their loyalty by establishing a relationship of mutual trust.

Building high-potential portfolios

Capitalizing on its long history as a property company, Etche creates property asset portfolios of buildings that meet the new needs of today's companies and the strategic acquisition motivations of investors.

In addition to the building itself, accessibility, transport links (road or multimodal), the maturity and growth prospects of each site, proximity to consumer, employment, and production catchment areas... All these location-specific factors and more are analyzed in detail before any acquisition decision is made.

While the Paris-Lyon-Marseille backbone of France remains its preferred target, Etche is also active in other regional markets, some of which offer potential yet to be tapped. Its detailed knowledge of all the regions of France and its particularly close links with shippers and logisticians are further strengths in sourcing core assets and those whose underlying assets have yet to be realized.

Working
in partnership

Always taking the medium- and long-term view, Etche strives to build mutual trust with all its tenants, local authorities, financial partners, and advisers.

This approach has earned Etche the loyalty of its tenant-clients, who appreciate the importance of property to the overall performance of their businesses. Etche is recognised as a benchmark player by local authorities, which appreciate the impact of its investments on the attractiveness of their area and the local economy.
