New Logistics. Green warehouses will balance the industry

Eco-friendly solutions that will help minimize the impact of warehousing facilities on the environment.

The first quarter of 2020 was very good for the transaction market in Poland. It was also a record-breaking period for the warehousing sector, Today investors are interested in warehouses and they are to a lesser extent interested in office blocks. Shopping centres and hotels are currently not being taken into consideration. How long will it last? Which sectors will remain more resilient to the effects of the pandemic? Dormitories, nursing homes, facilities from the “health care” sector – what other classes of assets will be the centre of attention of investors?

Cycle of presentations

Will flexible hubs revolutionize the market of office space? What is the best form of tenancy? What do tenants expect? What are developers working on?

Flats belong to a class of investment assets whose value is rapidly increasing. Nowadays developers in Poland build not only for private owners. An established brand of the Polish economy and the dynamic development of Polish cities attracts institutional investors. What is the driver of the housing sector in Poland? What is the size of the market of flats for rent in Poland? What locations and products are most attractive? Has Covid-19 pandemic taken its toll on the housing market? How strong is the basis of the increase of prices of flats in Poland?

COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated the weakness of the system. The stability of the supply chain has proven crucial for business. Will transferring production closer to end users stimulate the development of now logistics hubs in Central and Eastern Europe? How should Poland take advantage of this trend?

New working conditions – what will change in the way we work? Separate, yet together – will social distancing increase demand for offices or will offices become smaller? Which trend is going to prevail? What changes will be brought about by the pandemic – flexible surfaces, smart-desks, the reintroduction of open space?
