The Polish Commercial Real Estate Association (PINK) published data on office space markets in eight major regional cities in Poland (Krakow, Wroclaw, Tri-City, Katowice, Poznan, Lodz, Lublin, Szczecin) for the third quarter of 2025. By the end of September, total modern office space resources in the eight regional markets reached 6,732,400 sqm.


The largest transactions during this period included the acquisition of the Brama Miasta II office building (14,200 sqm) in Lodz by the Lodz Voivodeship Government for its own needs, Rockwool's lease extension and expansion covering 9,700 sqm in the Nowy Rynek complex in Poznan, and Globallogic's lease renewal for 6,500 sqm in Krakow's Bonarka for Business complex.

At the end of the third quarter of 2025, the largest office markets in Poland (after Warsaw) remained Krakow (1,846,700 sqm), Wroclaw (1,344,200 sqm) and Tri-City (1,067,000 sqm). From July to the end of September, three office buildings for commercial lease with a total area of 15,600 sqm were put into use.

Approximately 1,192,300 sqm of office space was available for immediate lease in the eight regional markets, corresponding to a vacancy rate of 17.7% (an increase of 0.2 percentage points compared to the second quarter of 2025 and 0.4 percentage points compared to the same period in 2024). The highest vacancy rate was recorded in Katowice at 23.4%, while the lowest was in Szczecin at 6.8%.

The total volume of lease transactions registered in the third quarter of 2025 was 134,400 sqm, representing a decline both quarterly (-38%) and annually (-36%). The most office space was leased in Krakow (31,900 sqm), Wroclaw (26,600 sqm) and Lodz (23,300 sqm). Lease renewals accounted for the largest share of transaction volume at 42%, while new contracts represented 41%.
