Global luxury brands are expanding more cautiously, choosing markets and locations more carefully rather than rapidly adding stores, according to Colliers’ EMEA Retailer Performance & Consumer Spending Trends report.

Poland’s overall warehouse vacancy rate is around 7 pct, but large, well-located warehouse space is becoming much harder to find. Companies looking for more than 15,000 sqm are increasingly competing for the same buildings. According to SQM Advisory, the squeeze is no longer confined to the very largest warehouses; availability of mid-sized units is also tightening.
