P3 Logistic Parks: Setting the Standard for Industrial Real Estate in Slovakia
P3 Logistic Parks, a leading industrial developer, has celebrated an exceptional year in 2025, reinforcing its position as a key player in the Slovak commercial real estate market. This success is attributed to a combination of strategic acquisitions, strong lease renewals with existing clients, and sustained tenant demand for high-quality spaces in prime locations. The outlook for 2026 remains positive, with P3 committed to its ambitious expansion plans despite a dynamic market.
Largest Lease Transaction Drives P3's 2025 Success
A pivotal moment for P3 Logistic Parks in 2025 was securing the largest leasing transaction on the Slovak market. This involved the significant extension and expansion of cooperation with MX Logistika at P3 Bratislava D2. The deal now encompasses a total of nearly 88,000 m², with new space accounting for almost 20%. MX Logistika, a part of the Austrian XXXLutz concern, operates as a vital distribution hub for MÖBELIX furniture stores, serving not only Slovakia but also Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Croatia, Slovenia, Poland, Romania, and Switzerland. Cushman & Wakefield acted as the real estate advisor for this landmark transaction, highlighting the enduring value of strategic locations and P3's flexible approach.
Key Highlights of P3's Market Leadership:
- Record Leasing Performance: P3 leased a total of 118,930 m² of warehouse space across Slovakia in 2025, with the MX Logistika deal forming the largest component.
- Strategic Acquisitions: The year concluded with a significant acquisition of nearly 100,000 m² from Stoneweg Europe Stapled Trust (SERT) in Nové Mesto nad Váhom, effectively doubling P3’s presence in this highly sought-after area. Overall, P3 acquired 122,113 m² of warehouse space and an additional 56,300 m² designated for future development.
- Client Retention & Growth: Key clients such as ZF Active Safety Slovakia s.r.o. and Pilous SK extended their leases in P3 Nové Mesto. P3 also welcomed new tenants including Faurecia in P3 Bratislava, Jungheinrich and DSV in P3 Senec, and Geis in P3 Žilina.
Navigating 2026: Challenges and Opportunities for Businesses
Peter Jánoši, Managing Director Slovakia & Czech Republic at P3 Logistic Parks, acknowledges the current turbulent and uncertain market conditions, expecting a market cooldown until at least mid-2026. However, he remains optimistic about Slovakia's long-term potential. P3's strategy for 2026 includes continuous investment in park infrastructure and qualitative improvements, such as a strong focus on green transformation. This commitment aims to provide stability, predictability, and cost-saving solutions for clients, especially concerning environmental requirements for ESG reporting.
P3 emphasizes long-term relationships and adapting to individual client needs as a core business philosophy and a competitive advantage. For businesses looking to establish or expand their operations, P3 Logistic Parks offers flexible solutions in strategic locations. Looking ahead, the automotive, retail, and e-commerce sectors are expected to dominate the market. While Western Slovakia and the Žilina region are saturated for automotive, Eastern Slovakia presents new opportunities. Importantly, the opening of the Višňové tunnel is set to make Žilina an increasingly attractive location for new regional distribution centers for retail and e-commerce, offering enhanced connectivity and economic advantages.
