SEGRO plc
Not a news outlet (UK property company)
Background
SEGRO plc is a property company, not a news organisation, so a media profile does not strictly apply. It was founded in 1920 by Percival Perry and Noel Mobbs and was originally built around the Slough Trading Estate in England. It was renamed Slough Estates in 1926 and later became one of the largest industrial property developers in the UK and Europe. It took the SEGRO name in 2006 and converted to REIT status in 2007, when UK REITs were introduced. Today it is listed in London and Paris. According to one source, it owns or manages about 10.9 million square meters of space, valued at about £21.7 billion. Its public output consists of financial reports, investor presentations and press releases about its properties and business. These are corporate disclosures and do not offer independent political or news coverage. If the name appeared in a news context, the likely explanation is that a news article covered the company, for example its earnings, property deals or UK and European logistics market, and SEGRO was not the publisher.
