Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Madrid, Spain, the company operates as a specialized investment vehicle managed under the umbrella of Grupo Lar Inversiones Inmobiliarias, S.A., an established international real estate development and asset management group.

Over the past two years, the company has focused on strategic portfolio consolidation and operational resilience by increasing its allocation to essential, grocery-anchored, and discount retail tenants. Furthermore, the company has undertaken extensive asset modernization programs across its commercial holdings, implemented green building improvements, and reinforced its operational integration with Grupo Lar's management platform to drive long-term asset appreciation and cash flow stability.
