Dear readers

Once again, a new issue of our magazine Location3 has rolled off the printing press. And once again, we strive to offer you not only interesting news from the world of semi-industrial parks but also absorbing perspectives from the countries and regions where we are represented. Moreover, you will find insightful reports and backstories about customers, businesses, and industries.

A main focus of the current issue is on the leg of land bordered by the Adriatic, Tyrrhenian and Ligurian seas. Namely, Italy. Having made initial conquests in Spain, VGP is beginning to extend its activities to the Italian peninsula. It is all starting with the country’s north, where a huge potential is just waiting to be developed. You will find more on this topic in an interview with Agostino Emanuele, “our man” in Italy. Not only does Italy embody our southwards expansion, but also it represents VGP’s ambition to grow into a truly pan-European provider that can offer its capacities and services throughout this colourful continent. As you can see from looking at our business performance, we are on the
right path. You’ll also find in this issue facts and figures regarding our business development. VGP is continuing to acquire prized plots in strategically favourable locations, and thereby it is persistently strengthening its pan-European network of semi-industrial parks.

More countries, more developments, and more parks also mean more people. So far, there are 170 employees working at VGP in different positions, with different qualifications, and from different origins. Working together they all make one thing very clear: When everybody pursues the same target, diversity is a real advantage. As usual, our “newbies” who will contribute to our continuing success are also presented in this issue.

I hope you enjoy reading Location3
