According to JLL's analysis, however, Q1 2023 was better than the corresponding periods in 2019 and 2020. Most of the new demand was in Poland's major logistics regions.

The Polish warehouse market continues to strengthen its European position. The market’s already high demand was further boosted in Q1 2022 by increased activity in the manufacturing sector.

23-02-2022

Interest in new space on the industrial market continues to grow. Developers are acting at an increasingly fast pace to respond to emerging needs. As a result, supply and demand records, driven largely by e-commerce, were once again set.

03-12-2021

Spectacular net take-up of 3.5 million sqm at the end of Q3 was better than any other total for the first three quarters of a year. The Polish market was also one of the driving forces behind the record demand in Europe.

24-08-2021

Demand for warehouses at 3.15 million sqm and new supply at 1.14 million sqm set new H1 records for the industrial market. Poland registers Europe’s second highest developer activity with over three million sqm under construction.

21-05-2021

Astonishing gross take-up totalling 1.6 million sqm is the best ever quarterly result for Poland’s industrial market. Developers are also maintaining the pace with 2.3 million sqm under construction.

15-03-2021

The growing maturity of the Polish industrial real estate sector is directing investor attention towards urban logistics properties. According to data from JLL and SEGRO, available investment land and the possibility to extend existing parks in the eight largest agglomerations allow for the development of up to 4 million sqm which could meet the increase in demand.

18-02-2021

In 2020, demand for warehouses reached a record 4.8 million sqm, with supply expanding by more than 2 million sqm. As at the end of 2019, 1.9 million sqm of space remained under construction.

The third quarter in Poland’s industrial sector saw a fairly positive sentiment among tenants and developers. At the end of September, the country was the second most active market in Europe in terms of net demand and the amount of space delivered. Warehouse investment in Poland was approximately EUR 2.2 billion between January and November, setting an all-time annual record.

11-08-2020

Gross demand was 2.2 million sqm – this is the best result for the first half of the year in the market’s history. New leases and expansions accounted for nearly 1.7 million sqm, which is a 30% improvement Y-O-Y. This means that Poland is the only country in Europe to have seen net demand growth.

11-05-2020

Gross demand was almost 950,000 sqm with new deals and expansions dominating the market. New space delivered in the first quarter of 2020 totalled 440,000 sqm.

07-02-2020

Annual volume of leased floor-space in 2019 was 3.75 million sqm. The market grew by a record-breaking 2.8 million sqm while 1.9 million sqm of space is under construction.

15-11-2019

2.5 million sqm was leased in the first three quarters of 2019 and by the end of the year, demand will most likely exceed 3 million sqm. 2019 has seen developers deliver two million sqm to market, with a total stock now stands at almost 18 million sqm.

17-09-2019

The importance of new locations on the industrial real estate market in Poland looks set to rapidly grow - this is the conclusion that can be drawn from the “Small town, big deal” report prepared by JLL in cooperation with Hillwood Poland and ManpowerGroup. The so-called Big Five still remain the growth engine and continuously attract the majority of investments. However, cities such as Konin, Kielce and Częstochowa are the rising stars of the Polish industrial market.

09-08-2019

Robust demand has spread all over Poland. In H1 2019 occupier activity was being seen in nearly all of the industrial regions in the country.

13-02-2019

Poland’s industrial market once again proved to be strong and buoyant. Total demand of 960,000 m² transacted on in Q4 boosted the annual volume of leased floor-space to 3.7 million m². Results were very close to last year’s record figures, making 2018 the second best year in the history of the market.

21-05-2018

The outstanding market performance seen in 2017 maintained its strength in the first quarter of this year. The continuous activity by occupiers has driven the gross take-up to rise to an unprecedented high of 1.1 million m² and helped to boost Q1 volumes by double digits as compared to the corresponding period from last year. Such a beginning of the year gives plenty reasons for us to be as optimistic as ever.

13-02-2018

The spectacular, record-setting results from 2017, which exceeded the expectations of most market players, allow one to go into 2018 with widespread optimism. Total space leased under new agreements and extensions in 2017 exceeded 3.1 million m², which is nearly 1 million m² more than in 2016. When lease renewals are added the gross take-up rises to more than 3.9 million m². In Q4 2017 alone, net take-up was more than 1.3 million m², slightly more than the figure for all of H1 2017 period. But what is behind those great numbers?
