For those of us who did not know of the net-leased tenant, A.P.C., we did some research. In 1988, Tunis native Jean Touitou created a French fashion label called A.P.C. (Atelier de Production et de Creation). Initially, Touitou studied linguistics and history at Sorbonne University in Paris. Today, his label is becoming a prominent name in the ready-to-wear fashion industry as well as a modest wardrobe addition to both celebrities and the average shopper.
Touitou’s label has been referred to as the “French Gap”, but it distinguishes itself apart from the popular chain store as a prestigious clothier of the finest apparel. As time passed, he started selling some of his most popular fashions at stores like New York’s Bergdorf Goodman.
We recently had an article on American Realty Capital. This former W.P. Carey CEO Gordon DuGan and US investment head Benjamin Harris have joined with American Realty Capital’s Nicholas Schorsch and William Kahane and formed Corporate Income Properties ARC Inc. Their interests are in Net Lease Properties Sale-Leaseback transactions.
