The sudden expansion of investments and production has led to significant developments in the Hungarian industrial real estate market. In Greater Budapest, the vacancy rate has sunk by 11 percentage points over the past two years due to strong tenant demand and a complete lack of new speculative developments, according to the latest research data from CBRE global real estate advisor. M0 Central Business Park is among the most successful logistics hubs in the Greater Budapest area.
Both the development and take-up of industrial parks in Central Europe is continuing and slightly accelerating in comparison with last year, according to research from Cushman & Wakefield. The appetite for investing in commercial properties is also increasing, with a shortage on the supply side making buyers willing to pay more.

International companies are increasingly looking to acquire industrial and logistics premises in Central Europe with the resulting rise in demand in the industrial sector. Despite these positive indicators, major regional industrial developers who have sites across CEE are following cautious development strategies, driven by built-to-suit projects with very limited speculative construction. This could result in a shortage of available industrial premises in the view of many analysts.
