Kungsleden lets 3,900 sq.m. to F&S in Eskilstuna

Listed Swedish property company Kungsleden AB (publ) has signed a 15-year lease
contract with fitness club Friskis & Svettis on a total contract value of
approximately SEK 60 m. Sveaplan Municipal Centre is a retail property in
central Eskilstuna, west of Stockholm.
The upper floor became vacant last autumn when furniture retailer Bernhardssons
Möbler moved out, closing its store. Kungsleden is now converting and adapting
these premises for Friskis & Svettis, which is scheduled to move in in April
2014. Friskis& Svettis expects to expand its operations in these premises.
With a new tenant in the building, Kungsleden’s objective is to convert the
property to food retailing and fitness, which will create a new image for
Sveaplan Municipal Centre. Kungsleden is also working on changing the zoning
plan for this district, and securing building permits for new housing.
“Kungsleden’s new strategy also includes working on project and property
development. I view work on this property in Eskilstuna as a good example of
this, and the development of new building permits is also part of value
creation,” commented Kungsleden’s Interim Chief Executive Anders Kvist.
