Anthos

Anthos, the investment arm of the Brenninkmeijer family (owners of the C&A clothing chain), is in the news due to its recent acquisition of the Mercado de San Miguel in Madrid. While the real estate asset management company Redevco formally remains the owner, the Brenninkmeijer family, through Anthos, has gained full economic control of the market, acquiring it from the US fund Ares Management. This acquisition highlights Anthos's continued investment in prominent real estate assets. The Mercado de San Miguel is a significant gastronomic and tourist destination in Madrid, making this a noteworthy addition to Anthos's portfolio. The deal underscores the Brenninkmeijer family's diversification of investments beyond the fashion industry and their interest in high-profile real estate ventures.
