Almost €1.7bn transacted in Poland’s industrial sector during the first half of the year, already outperforming 2019’s full-year results by 9 percent, according to Avison Young. The exceptional volume was driven mainly by large portfolio transactions, such as Goodman’s disposal of its CEE activities to GLP, and corporate takeovers, like Madison International Realty taking a 46.5-percent stake in European Logistics Investments. The Covid-19 pandemic boosted demand for Polish logistic assets. It currently seems that the major potential obstacle for the country’s growing industrial investment volume might be a scarcity of high-quality products for sale, according to Avison Young.
