Brisbane, Australia (ABN Newswire) - National Storage REIT (ASX:NSR) is pleased to announce it has entered into arrangements to acquire two freehold storage centres in Dunedin, New Zealand.

The centre at Kaikorai comprises 1,100 storage and commercial units in a mix of ranch style and multi-storey buildings across 18,500 sqm of net lettable area. The Gardens centre, located in the North East Valley, comprises 450 units over 2,300 sqm of net lettable area in a one level complex.
