New capital will fuel these increasingly large investments.

“Over recent years, Oxford has substantially increased our exposure to logistics real estate by selectively investing in a series of best-in-class operators across the globe, and Lineage represents the premier operator in cold storage sector,” said Oxford Properties’ President Michael Turner. “I look forward to working with the Lineage management team and the rest of the Board, which has transformed the Company into the global market leader. Our investment demonstrates our confidence in the team, the platform it has built and Lineage’s growth opportunities.”
The Company also announced new Board Observers, each with extensive real estate investment experience, including John Carrafiell, a Founder & Senior Managing Partner of real estate investment management and advisory firm BentallGreenOak, and Zhang Xin, CEO SOHO China, one of China’s largest and best known commercial property developers.
