Leasing market cools, investment market stable

This is evident from the recently published research report “LOGISTICS REAL ESTATE, Dutch Market Report 2026”, released by INDUSTRIAL real estate partners. The brokerage firm, which specializes in the Dutch logistics and industrial real estate market and operates nationwide from three offices, records all occupier and investment transactions in this segment annually, in collaboration with Bak Property Research.

After a strong recovery in 2024, total occupier take-up declined in 2025. Take-up in 2025 amounted to 2.4 million sqm, 9% less than in 2024. Supply increased further to 5.36 million sqm by the end of 2025.

The investment market remained stable in 2025. With continued interest in Dutch logistics real estate and more or less unchanged financial conditions, total investment volume was virtually the same as in 2024, amounting to €2.4 billion.
