Supermarket Income REIT (SUPR), listed on the premium segment of the LSE, invests in supermarket property, let to leading UK supermarket operators, on long, RPI-linked leases. The investment objective is to provide an attractive level of income, with the potential for capital growth.

The broad commercial property market is showing increasing signs of stabilisation. The company’s supermarket assets have the benefit of visible income from long, mostly indexed, leases, a strong occupier covenant and the non-cyclical nature of grocery retailing. Investment volumes in supermarket property have been significantly more resilient than for the wider market.

Despite strong growth in UK grocery sector sales, supermarket property yields continued to widen in H124 and, anticipating a turn in the interest cycle, SUPR had identified attractive opportunities to resume accretive portfolio growth. It has since acquired one store in the UK and has made its first investment in France, acquiring a portfolio of 17 omnichannel stores, operated by Carrefour, for €75m. Earnings accretion has been locked in with seven-year, fixed rate, unsecured euro-denominated borrowing. The acquisition adds another very strong tenant covenant and opens up significant further opportunities for growth in the large European market, with a continued focus on structural growth in online grocery shopping.
