UNIBAIL-RODAMCO-WESTFIELD SE Paris, Amsterdam, February 2nd, 2016
Less than 18 months after it was delivered, the Majunga tower, located on the south side of the La Défense esplanade, is fully let. After signing a lease with AXA IM in October 2014, it is Deloitte, a leader in professional services in France and one of the leading firms worldwide, which will set-up its French headquarters in 31,000 m² on the top 19 floors of the Majunga tower.
Alain Pons, Chairman of Deloitte France and Global Deputy CEO: "We wanted an emblematic place and a cutting-edge work environment, focused on our clients and employees. Majunga is a choice that matches Deloitte's leading position in France and our goals for the coming years. With a set of unique innovations in Europe and open to its environment, this eco-friendly building is undoubtedly one of the flagship buildings currently on the market."
This transaction illustrates Unibail-Rodamco's strategy, the "New Art Of Working", of which Majunga is the first example. The well-being of employees is at the heart of the design of the Majunga tower, which offers a calm and spacious working environment and unique loggias or balconies on each floor.
In a difficult market, the successful leasing of the entire Majunga tower shows the need for modern, functional and user-friendly offices, meeting users' daily requirements. This success also marks the continued appeal of La Défense for large international groups, reinforcing its position as the leading business district in Europe.
Christophe Cuvillier, Chairman of the Board of Unibail-Rodamco: "Less than 18 months after delivery, I am delighted that the Majunga tower is now fully let. The quality of these two occupants illustrates Unibail-Rodamco's strategy of differentiation. The Trinity tower, already under construction, is the next of this new generation of towers. It is due to be delivered at the end of 2018."
