Slovenia

Market characteristics

Slovenia has an excellent geographical position, but the industrial and logistics sector is still the least developed real estate sector in Slovenia. This is also the sector with most upside potential in terms of development and investment activity.

The main industrial centres are Ljubljana, Maribor, Koper, Novo Mesto and Velenje.

There is a shortage of available modern stock due to the fact that most of the existing properties are outdated and/or owner-occupied.

In order to keep in line with global trends, technology and further growth of the e-commerce sector, we expect an increase in developments in the coming years.

Demand is driven mostly by international companies requiring large, modern properties which are scarce and local retailers requiring logistics centres. Occupiers seeking expansion are confronted by a shortage of suitable space.
