TOKYO -- Blackstone Group has sold a fulfillment center for Amazon Japan to fellow U.S. asset manager Nuveen for an estimated 40 billion yen ($365 million) less than a year after the property was acquired, Nikkei has learned.

Nuveen is believed to have purchased the facility in Odawara, a city southwest of Tokyo, jointly with a South Korean investor as a long-term investment.
