Poland’s warehouse market picked up noticeably in the first half of 2026 after a year dominated by lease renegotiations.

Poland Warehouse demand strengthens as availability tightens in Poland

Poland’s warehouse market gained momentum in the first half of 2026 as occupier demand picked up while the development pipeline continued to shrink. Gross take-up rose 21 pct year on year, while net take-up – covering new leases and expansions – jumped 58 pct to more than 2.1 mln sqm. The vacancy rate fell to 6.3 pct and space under construction dropped to its lowest level in more than nine years. According to Axi Immo, the combination of strong demand and limited new supply could stimulate rent rises in many markets.
