Market data
The offer of modern warehouse space in Lublin and neighbouring localities includes contemporary warehouses and halls that meet quality and safety standards. Thanks to its strategic location at the intersection of key routes S12 and S17, as well as proximity to the border with Ukraine, the Lublin area is a promising centre for distribution and manufacturing companies. The Lublin warehouse market is also potentially attractive for investors in the e-commerce sector.
In the first half of 2025, 22,000 sq m of modern logistics and manufacturing space (gross demand) was leased in the Lublin voivodeship.
Clients and investors appreciate the potential of the Lublin warehouse market due to the region's position at the crossroads of the S12 and S17 expressways. The S12 expressway is the Polish section of the under-construction Via Carpatia route linking northern and southern Europe, while the S17 provides a connection between the Lublin voivodeship and Warsaw.
Warehouses and distribution centres in the Lublin area are mostly located by logistics companies, food businesses, and automotive-sector entities. The region is also chosen by companies planning distribution to Eastern European markets.
Warehouses for Rent in Lublin, the Lublin Agglomeration and All of Eastern Poland
Modern halls and warehouses for rent in the Lublin region and voivodeship are competitively priced, although choice remains limited. The available modern halls and warehouses in the Lublin area are equipped to class A and B+ standards, making them a solution for businesses seeking efficient storage and distribution facilities.
Developers such as Panattoni, MLP, 7R, GLP, and local investors are present in the Lublin voivodeship, supplying the market with both large warehouses and smaller business modules. Due to the specific needs of tenants, developers also implement bespoke projects tailored to individual requirements.
At the end of June 2025, the vacancy rate—meaning warehouse and manufacturing space immediately available for rent—in the Lublin voivodeship stood at 8.2%. Meanwhile, only 3,000 sq m of warehouse and production space was under construction in and around Lublin.
