Helical Retail has forward funded the Cortonwood Shopping Park in Rotherham for £36.3m.
The funds will go to clients of Aberdeen Asset management and represents a yield of around 5.5% on the 80% prelet property.
The funding is one of the very few deals to go through on a retail park in recent months as the market slows ahead of the Brexit referendum.
Helical Retail, part of Helical Bar, is funding the construction of the park, which is due to start in May 2017. Tenants that have signed up include River Island, New Look, M&S Simply Food, H&M and Outfit.
Edgerley Simpson Howe acted for Helical Retail on both the lettings and funding. Aberdeen Asset Management was advised by CWM.
