The Ànecblau shopping center, a key asset of the Helios Real Estate Socimi retail portfolio, is strategically situated in Castelldefels, 18 km south of Barcelona, Spain, benefiting from excellent accessibility via the C-32 motorway. Located just 10 minutes from El Prat Airport, this premium retail destination serves a thriving catchment area of 400,000 residents. Its prime location within a popular Catalan tourist hub ensures strong footfall and prominence.
Following a major acquisition in late 2024, the Helios consortium, a joint venture between Hines European Real Estate Partners III (HEREP III) and Grupo Lar, acquired Lar España Real Estate Socimi. Helios Real Estate Socimi, rebranded from Lar España, manages a portfolio of 12 malls and retail parks know for their quality and scale. Helios is setting a benchmark in retail real estate through value creation, sustainability and innovative customer experiences.
