ABOVE AVERAGE START TO THE YEAR - 2ND PLACE NATIONWIDE
-
Düsseldorf's warehouse and logistics market has made a strong start to 2025. Take-up of 101,000 sqm is thus 84% above the long-term average (55,000 sqm). Even the good quarterly result of the previous year was exceeded by an impressive 77%. The Rhine metropolis thus ranks 2nd among the top logistics locations nationwide, behind Hamburg.
-
The main reason for this very good result is large-volume rental agreements for over 20,000 sqm. While this size segment has only been occupied twice in the first quarter of the last ten years, it is currently responsible for 64% of take-up.
In the first three months, two major leases were recorded. The two logistics service providers Goodcang Logistics (43,200 sqm) and Nordlicht (21,200 sqm) each rented large areas in Mönchengladbach. -
Rents have remained stable compared to the previous quarter. Over the past twelve months, however, rental prices for logistics space in the Düsseldorf market area have already risen sharply: the prime rent increased by 8% to
€8.50 per sqm compared to the same quarter of the previous year. The average rent also rose significantly by 5% to €6.80 per sqm.
