The Polish industrial and logistics market demonstrated resilience in the first three quarters of 2024. During this period, 2.1 million sqm of new warehouse space was delivered, expanding the sector’s total stock to nearly 34 million sqm (+9% Y/Y). Currently, 1.9 million sqm are under construction (-22% Y/Y), marking the second-lowest development activity since early 2018. Despite challenges, leasing activity remained stable at 3.8 million sqm, with a vacancy rate of 8.0% (+30 bps Y/Y) at the end of September 2024, says Axi Immo.
