2025/Q2 INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY MARKET REPORT - SLOVAK REPUBLIC
Slowdown in demand and growth in offers
„In the second quarter, leasing activity experienced a notable decline compared to the same period last year, though we remain optimistic about a potential positive shift over the next six months. Vacancy rose to 6.15%, with shadow vacancy—space offered for sublease—adding a further 3%. Similar to the previous quarter, a significant volume of industrial space is expected to enter the market in the coming months. Contrary to our earlier expectations, demand did not increase, which will likely lead to further rises in vacancy rates. Consequently, we anticipate intensified competition among landlords in the most competitive areas, such as Trnava and Senec Areas , most likely through rent reductions and the offering of more attractive lease terms.„ - Alexandra Pussová, Sales & Data Support Specialist
