Russian Railways JSC CCTS and Citydel Business Centre have signed a long-term lease agreement for an office property with an area of 1,057 sq. m.
Centre for Corporate Transport Services is a branch of Russian Railways JSC responsible for full-cycle cooperation with the customer during the management of freight shipments by rail. CCTS serves as a “one-stop shop” for company customers in cooperation with Russian Railways JSC entities that guarantees the quality and compliance with the deadlines for the services provided by the company.
“Successful development of the Russian Railways JSC branch unit made it necessary to relocate it to a modern and comfortable office, says Alexander Voroshnin, Deputy Head of CCTS for Transport and Logistics Development. We chose CITYDEL Business Centre for a number of reasons: Citydel’s good location next to the Kurskaya metro station, ease of travel by foot and transport, and immediate proximity to Russian Railways’ headquarters in the vicinity of the Red Gate. We hope that relocation to a new office will provide both our employees and our customers with a more comfortable environment.”
“We highly appreciate our partnership with such a major Russian transportation company as Russian Railways JSC CCTS, count on long-term productive cooperation, and are planning to invest our efforts in the fostering and enhancement of our relations with Russian Railways JSC group of companies,” says Mikhail Shmonov, Director of Lease Relations Department, Prime Property Management.
“Citydel Business Centre is the unquestionable centrepiece of the business area around the Kurskaya and Taganskaya metro stations, says Natalya Nikitina, Partner, Head of Office Real Estate Department, Cushman & Wakefield. Our long experience of cooperation attests to a high quality of office space and operating service. At present, business activity in the office market is consistently high combined with a shortage of quality properties. Considering the tenant’s requirements for a new property and the current market environment, we think that the decision to rent an office in Citydel Business Centre by Centre for Corporate Transport Services is the best possible one.”
Citydel Business Centre is the largest 13-storey Class A office complex in Garden Ring Line 1 with a gross area of 63,500 sq. m located within walking distance from the Kursky Railway Station and Kurskaya, Chkalovskaya, and Krasnye Vorota metro stations. Citydel’s outstanding quality is attested to both by BREEAM In-Use world standard certificate with a Very Good rating and by the fact that the list of its tenants includes major international and Russian companies, as well as by its highly developed infrastructure combined with an exceptional service quality.
