“Made in Poland” is a very interesting report by JLL, Polish Investment and Trade Agency, Hays and ALTO, that offer holistic guidance to manufacturing companies for establishment and expanding their business in Poland. Key highlights below:
✅ Poland is strengthening its position as the leading industrial and logistics hub in Europe. During the last 10 years high-speed road network has expanded by over 200% and is now top 5 in Europe. A 8h driving time catchment area for Wrocław provides a combined access to population of over 70m.
✅ Poland with its 20m working age population (38m in total) is in top 3 in Europe and labour costs are one of the lowest. Additionally availability of land are a huge advantages of Poland’s emerging regions.
✅ Poland is the 6th largest commercial industrial real estate market in Europe. Still, the industrial real estate market has room for further growth, with a potential of as much as 25 million m2 of new warehousing and production space. Currently there are 25 million m2 of warehouses (doubled its size in just the last five years) but the vacancy rate is very low with 3.1% as of the 1Q2022.
