Upper Silesia on the logistic operators’ target. Transactions for almost 7,000 sq m supported by AX IMMO
AXI IMMO has advised on lease transactions for logistic operators in Sosnowiec and Tychy - TVM Transport and ALB Logistics.
Upper Silesia in the first half of this year was very popular among tenants. 401, 000 sq m of modern warehouse space was leased. This is the second result after Central Poland (444,000 sq m) in Poland. The region is also characterized by high demand-side dynamics, which increased by 89% in comparison to the first half of 2016.
Increased demand for warehouse and production space is generated largely by the increase in production in the automotive sector (increase in production growth of 15% in Q2 2017 compared to the same period last year). Especially logistics operators gain from this good market situation which operates on regional and national scales. An example is ALB Logistics which has leased 3,350 sq m in Silesian Logistic Center located in Sosnowiec.
