Hegele's new facility is located at ProLogis Park Munich, a state-of-the-art distribution park situated along Germany's A92 highway between downtown Munich and the Munich International Airport.

"ProLogis remains focused on leasing its pipeline of new and existing properties and today's announcement underscores both the strength of our customer relationships and the quality of our portfolio."

ProLogis Park Munich currently comprises four buildings totaling more than one million square feet of space. In addition to Simon Hegele, current customers at the park include Hellmann Worldwide Logistics, Dachser and DSV. Throughout Germany, ProLogis owns or manages approximately 14.8 million square feet (1.37 million square meters) across five markets.
