Skanska said in a statement that the new contract brings the occupancy rate of the second building to 61.2%. It also said the transaction was brokered by real estate consulting firm CBRE and that Carrefour’s relocation will take place this year.
Drug maker Sanofi and head hunting company Adecco will also move to Green Court’s second building.
Carrefour Romania is currently headquartered in Anchor Plaza, which is located in the vicinity of shopping center Plaza Romania held by Turkish group Anchor.
Green Court Bucharest is the first real estate project developed by Skanska in Romania, whose construction set off in 2013. The compound consists of three office buildings covering a total 52,000 sqm.
The first building, which is almost entirely leased, was completed in 2014 and sold to businessman Ioannis Papalekas. The second building is due for completion in the second quarter of 2015.
Skanska, one of the world’s largest real estate developers and builders, entered the Romanian market in 2011.
Carrefour has 173 stores in Romania, of which 27 hypermarkets, 92 supermarkets, 53 proximity stores and one online store.
