\n

The Catalan logistics real estate market has reached 240,747 m\u00b2<\/strong>, representing a 63% increase<\/strong> compared to the same period last year. This growth confirms the dynamism of the Catalan logistics market and consolidates the recovery of activity, with a quarter marked by the signing of several large-scale transactions, according to the Catalonia Logistics Market Report Q1 2026 published by FORCADELL.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

In total, 22 transactions<\/strong> have been completed, placing the average deal size at 10,943 m\u00b2<\/strong>. This figure reflects a high level of activity, with a clear predominance of large-scale operations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Of the total contracted space, 163,068 m\u00b2<\/strong> (68%) corresponds to newly built assets, either turnkey or built-to-suit developments, while 77,679 m\u00b2<\/strong> (32%) has been signed in existing assets. Gerard Plana, Director of Industrial-Logistics at FORCADELL, states that \u201cthese figures highlight the demand\u2019s preference for modern product<\/strong>, as well as the strong absorption of available stock. In this context, immediate availability continues to be one of the determining factors in operators\u2019 decision-making.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

By size, the market has been clearly dominated by large-scale transactions<\/strong>, with 50% of take-up concentrated in assets over 10,000 m\u00b2, followed by the 5,000\u201310,000 m\u00b2 segment, which accounts for 32% of the total.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

Rental stability with increases in newly built assets<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Most of the contracted space has been located in Barcelona\u2019s 3rd ring<\/strong>, which reached 119,360 m\u00b2<\/strong> (49%) across 9 transactions<\/strong>. This is followed by the 2nd ring<\/strong> with 110,130 m\u00b2<\/strong> (46%) in 10 transactions<\/strong>, consolidating itself as one of the main logistics hubs. Meanwhile, the 1st ring<\/strong> has accounted for 11,257 m\u00b2<\/strong> (5%) across 3 transactions<\/strong>, maintaining a more limited and selective level of activity, constrained by the structural shortage of available product.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

As for rents, the first quarter of the year has shown a stable trend<\/strong>, with slight increases in newly built assets located in the most established areas. At the same time, commercial incentives<\/strong> remain in certain transactions, especially in existing assets or secondary locations, in order to improve competitiveness and facilitate decision-making by operators.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
