Qube Logistics Holdings Limited (ASX:QUB) says it will spend $123 million to boost its stake in the Moorebank Industrial Property Trust.
The logistics business has inked a deal with joint venture partner Stockland (ASX:SGP) to purchase a 55 per cent unitholding in the trust.
When the deal is done Qube will have an 85 per cent holding with the remaining interest held by QR National (ASX:QRN).
