ADL's Basic Strategy

ADL's Philosophy

ADL will build "collaborative growth relationships" with the ITOCHU Group, at the core of which is ITOCHU Corporation, one of the leading general trading companies with particular strengths in consumer-related* businesses. By doing so, ADL aims to contribute to the enrichment of society through the expansion of logistics infrastructure, including logistics real estate, and to maximize unitholder value and thereby assist in the development of a sustainable J-REIT market.

  • ITOCHU Corporation defines textiles, food, general products & realty, and ICT & financial business as "consumer-related" sectors.

Collaborative Growth Relationships with the ITOCHU Group

Collaborative growth relationships

Based on the "Realty and Logistics (R/L) Platform," which consists of real estate & logistics functions of ITOCHU Corporation, ADL aims to achieve sustainable growth through property supply and leasing support, leveraging the Group-wide M/C Platform of ITOCHU Corporation's broad customer network covering 100,000 companies.*

Meanwhile, by having ADL take on the ownership and management role for logistics real estate, the ITOCHU Group enjoys increased points of contact with the tenant companies and opportunities to gain a better feel for their business needs. By immediately providing solutions that meet the business needs of these tenant companies, the ITOCHU Group strengthens the relationships with the tenant companies and opens the way to new kinds of logistics real estate development and leasing that reinforce the platforms.

ADL believes that such new logistics real estate development and leasing, achieved through the ITOCHU Group, will lead to a virtuous cycle that leads to further growth for ADL, namely a collaborative growth relationship.

Through capturing future trends in the logistics market from the perspectives of both product distribution and logistics, based on this collaborative growth relationship, ADL seeks to be a REIT that responds flexibly to change, promotes the expansion of logistics infrastructure, and maximizes unitholder value.
