Demand for warehouses in the Czech Republic breaks records in 2021

by Property Forum
Clients interested in new industrial premises in the Czech Republic had very little to choose from last year.

The result was also affected by a lower volume of completed industrial properties, mainly due to the impact of anti-pandemic measures. However, this changed at the end of the year when a record 800,000 sqm of industrial space was under construction. The urgent need to meet tenants' enormous demand is also evidenced by the fact that the share of speculative development has once again increased after a longer period of inactivity, 108 Agency reported today.
