Poznań is one of the five most important warehouse markets in Poland, located in western Poland.
The most popular areas in this region are the areas along the A2 motorway and national road 92, which enable efficient transport and delivery of goods between the east and west of Poland towards Germany. Outside the city of Poznań, the main industrial and warehouse areas used for logistics purposes in the Greater Poland Voivodeship are concentrated along the S5 and S11 expressways and in the vicinity of the Poznań Ławica airport.

Companies are also considering expansion in Sady, Gołuska, Tarnowo Podgórskie, as well as in towns further away from Poznań, e.g. Swarzędz, Konin, Kalisz and Niepruszewo.
Key developers who have appreciated this area include companies such as Panattoni, 7R, GLP, WhiteStar, Logicor, Hillwood, CTP, MLP, Segro, Hines, Prologis, P3, CTP, and numerous local investors.
In the region, various types of halls for rent are being built in the region, including big-box or multitenant warehouse buildings, exclusive investments such as BTO and BTS, as well as smaller urban warehouses such as SBU (Small Business Unit) serving the so-called last mile logistics.
The Poznań region attracts both large international companies and local domestic suppliers, including companies from the logistics, distribution, e-commerce, courier, automotive, light manufacturing, general manufacturing, retail chains, grocery chains, and furniture/DIY industries.
