Anna Korólczyk-Lewandowska, ‘Eurobuild CEE’: What is the current situation on the warehouse and industrial market in Poland? And what are the latest trends?
Kamil Szymański, associate director, head of industrial agency, Savills: The logistics real estate market is still very active. In the middle of this year, the stock of modern space in the country reached 16.8 mln sqm. The annual increase in the supply of warehouse space since 2017 is more than 2 mln. We believe that the strong growth will continue over the next few years. Developers are still active on the main markets – in central Poland, Warsaw and its surrounding area, Poznań, Wrocław and Upper Silesia. We are also seeing growing interest in new locations among others in Eastern Poland e.g.: Rzeszów, Kielce, Lublin and Białystok. Locations in Western Poland, near the German border, such as Gorzów Wielkopolski and Zielona Góra are also increasingly drawing the attention of tenants and developers.
