The market is showing positive momentum

Last week, Ramp One took place in Hamburg – the event for logistics property decision-makers. The logistics property market in Germany is picking up again. The drivers are a resurgence in e-commerce and new users from the data centre and defence sectors. But growth requires space in the right location – and, above all, electricity. “The market is working,” says Christopher Raabe (BNP Paribas Real Estate), particularly for smaller and medium-sized volumes. A shortage of space is holding things back, while brownfield sites are gaining in importance but are highly competitive. Energy is just as scarce. Conclusion: demand remains high.
