“These sales demonstrate CQR’s ongoing active asset management and focus on improving portfolio quality while maintaining balance sheet strength,” said Charter Hall Retail CEO Ben Ellis.

“The sale proceeds of $225.5 million less transaction costs, will strengthen the balance sheet optionality that CQR has traditionally had through the ownership of liquid convenience retail assets,” he added.
