Demand for logistics space increases while investment volumes fall by 60%

According to the latest figures from Cushman & Wakefield, take‑up volume rose by 10.5% year‑on‑year in Q1 to approximately 833,000 sq m, while total investment volume in the sector amounted to around €265 million, representing a 60% decrease compared with the same period last year.
This contrast highlights the current dynamics of the market: operational fundamentals remain strong, while investors and developers are increasingly constrained by structural bottlenecks.
