Report Highlights
The European industrial real estate market saw limited levels of growth in
2007, with supply and demand in most countries being more balanced than in
previous years. Overall rental growth in Europe was just 2.5% Central and
Eastern Europe once again reverted to out performance, with rental growth of
7% compared to just 1.3% in Western Europe.
As credit squeeze slowly impacts the EU market, the more mature locations may
slow further in the second half of 2008. However, there will be an increasing
number of opportunities for occupiers from both the manufacturing and
logistics sectors to discover lower cost locations, and this trend will
generate rental growth in most locations in 2008.
In the CEE region though the pipeline is large, there is sustained demand and
proportionally less good-quality space available. Demand for space in regional
cities is also increasing. Manufacturers will continue moving their operations
to lower cost locations in the foreseeable future, thus ensuring a steadily
growing demand for logistics property.
