Moldavia and Oltenia regions remain the least developed, but with a high catch-up potential with the advance of infrastructure, in line with the Romania Industrial & Logistics Market report drawn up by real estate consultancy Cushman & Wakefield Echinox.
Of the total stock of 7.75 million square meters now existing nationwide at the end of the first six months of 2025, around 4.6 million square meters are built around Bucharest, Ploiesti and Pitesti.
Around 440,000 square meters of industrial parks are now under construction, of which over 80% are located near Bucharest.
“Net demand of logistics and industrial spaces remains solid, fueled by the expansion of tenants in retail, e-commerce and manufacturing, which continue to seek modern and well-located modern facilities,” says Stefan Surcel, Head of Industrial Cushman & Wakefield Echinox.
The biggest owners of industrial and logistics spaces are CTP and WDP, with an overall portfolio of around 5 million square meters, thus controlling almost two thirds of the market.
