Real estate investor GTC has leased over 150,000 sqm of commercial space in 2025 across 30 office complexes and six shopping centres in CEE.


The company leased over 100,000 sqm of office space and more than 50,000 sqm of retail space across seven cities in Poland, as well as in Bucharest, Budapest, Belgrade, Sofia and Zagreb.

"In most of the markets where we operate, including Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and Serbia, we leased more space than in the previous year, further confirming our ability to strengthen GTC's position across different asset classes and diverse local market conditions," said Botond Rencz, CEO of GTC Group.

Among the office leasing transactions in 2025 were lease renewals with companies occupying approximately 12,000 sqm at City Gate in Bucharest, over 10,000 sqm at Advance Business Center in Sofia, 5,000 sqm at V188 in Budapest and 4,000 sqm at Francuska Office Center in Katowice. The new lease was signed with Uniqa for over 6,000 sqm in Centerpoint 3, currently under development in Budapest's business district.

In the retail segment in Poland, GTC signed new and renewed leases for a total of 31,800 sqm at Galeria Północna in Warsaw and Galeria Jurajska in Częstochowa. In Ada Mall in Belgrade, 9,100 sqm was leased, while Avenue Mall in Zagreb saw over 7,600 sqm of leasing activity, and Mall of Sofia recorded 1,400 sqm.
