Our People Managing our global properties with our people ensures excellent customer service, strengthens the relationships that drive repeat business and provides unmatched visibility on market opportunities. ProLogis was founded in 1991 on a unique principle by focusing on customer service, not just transactions, and forging long-term bonds with the companies we serve, we will deliver exceptional value for our customers. This philosophy holds true today; customers are the backbone of our business. From our inception, we have internally managed our properties. This approach creates stronger customer relationships, allowing us to achieve occupancies in our portfolio roughly one to two percent higher on average than that of the markets in which we operate. It also supports high retention rates with approximately 79 percent of our customers in 2010 choosing to renew with us. In addition, through close ties with customers and brokers in their local markets and frequent communication with colleagues around the globe, our leasing and development professionals have a unique ability to monitor market conditions and identify opportunities. This insight helped the company secure 15 build-to-suit development opportunities around the world in 2010. In the fourth quarter, ProLogis started construction on a 155,000-square-foot distribution facility for Europa Worldwide Logistics, one of the largest, privately owned transportation and logistics companies in the United Kingdom. This is Europas second build-to-suit in the UK with ProLogis. The companys total industrial operating portfolio (including completed development) was 91.0 percent leased at year end, up from 89.2 percent at the beginning of the year. Total leasing activity for the year was 119 million square feet, close to the peak of 121 million square feet in 2008. Our Platform With operations in 19 countries in North America, Europe and Asia, ProLogis is well positioned to serve companies with local distribution needs as well as those with global s pace requirements. In fact, we serve a large number of our top customers on more than one continent. Prior to the downturn in the global economy, we actively acquired a land bank to support a very high level of global development. Today, with more modest prospects for growth, our objectives have changed, and we continue to reduce our level of land ownership. A key focus for the next three years will be to continue to generate income from, or monetize, our land bank through development and third-party sales. In 2010, we successfully monetized approximately $248 million of land. Our Partners ProLogis property funds enable our partners, some of the worlds largest real estate investment firms, to achieve their investment objectives while supporting our long-term growth. |
Our investment management business was a major driver of growth over the last decade. Since beginning the business 1999, we have grown this business to more than $18.5 billion of assets under management, with property investments in Asia, Europe and North America. In doing so, we developed strong relationships with some of the premier institutional investors in the world. This approach has allowed us to grow with less of our capital invested while generating income from both our ongoing ownership interest in the funds and receiving fees for certain asset and property management activities. Balanced Interests ProLogis mission is to be the leading global provider of sustainable distribution facilities to the worlds largest users of distribution space and to maximize shareholder value through customer service, organizational excellence and our commitment to corporate responsibility (CR).
