Published on 23 May 2023

CMS Belgrade real estate lawyers Ivan Gazdić and Sandra Miljanić have provided expert legal support and assistance to our long-standing client Delhaize Serbia, the biggest food retail chain in Serbia, a member of Ahold Delhaize, one of the world's largest food retail groups, in negotiation of a lease agreement with VGP, a developer of logistics and semi-industrial real estate, for the lease of Delhaize Serbia’s second distribution centre in Serbia covering more than 41,000 square meters. 

The future VGP Park Belgrade will be the largest industrial park in Serbia and the region, covering an area of more than one million square meters. It is located next to the M-70 and M-75 highways and the Belgrade Ring Road, in close proximity to the Nikola Tesla International Airport.

Jan-Willem Dockheer, CEO of Delhaize Serbia, commented: “Our Company remains consistent with the strategy of expanding the retail network and we are very pleased that our second distribution centre will be built in such an important and sustainable location. In the next ten years, we will further expand our spatial capacities, employ a large number of new colleagues, and we will continue to invest in the development of the local market. I believe in success and wish the VGP Serbia team many great years of work.”

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Delhaize team for entrusting us with their legal needs over the years. We look forward to continuing our partnership and providing them with the highest level of legal support.
