The landscape of the A-92 is about to change its daily rhythm. The iconic “La Bola” building, which for decades was the emblem of Merkamueble in Seville, has finally found a new tenant that promises to shake up the commercial sector in the province. Asia City, the bazaar and retail operator, will occupy the 25,000 square meters of this strategic warehouse.
The largest Asian warehouse in Seville
The operation, advised by the consulting firm Korpus Capital, represents a giant leap for Asia City. The company will thus move from its current 14,000 square meters to an area of 22,000, consolidating its position as the largest Asian logistics center in Seville.
Although the official figures have not been made public, real estate sources indicate that the rent ranges between €3 and €3.5 per square meter. The operator is expected to be fully installed during the first half of 2026, reinforcing its factory pricing and large-scale distribution model.
What will happen to the iconic building under the ‘Ball’?
Although the logistics warehouse already has an occupant, the most recognizable element of the complex—the circular office building under the ball—remains available, but with a very promising future.
Korpus Capital is exclusively marketing these 1,500 square meters of office space with a disruptive plan on the table:
- Luxury corporate headquarters: A single tenant for a building that is a visual symbol of the city.
- Flex Office space: The creation of a modern business center under the Korpus Workspace brand, adapted to teleworking and technology companies seeking total visibility and an 8,000-square-meter parking lot.
“The ‘La Bola’ building is a symbol in Seville. Our intention is to give it a modern and functional use, in line with new ways of working,” explains Saioa Alejos, partner at Korpus Capital.
Located in the Merca Renta Industrial Park (Alcalá de Guadaíra), a stone’s throw from the border with Seville, the location is the great asset of this operation. Its direct connection to the main transport routes makes it a sweet spot for “last mile” logistics.
With this move, Asia City not only grows in size, but also positions itself at the nerve center of commerce in southern Spain, while Seville recovers activity in one of its most beloved and photographed properties.
