As part of expanding its portfolio of services, Prologis is launching a completely new concept that responds to strong demand from fast-growing companies and start-ups. The concept of "Small Flexi Units" was launched for the first time in Prologis Park Bratislava, where Prologis divided 4,800 square meters into four separate units with an area from 600 to 1,500 square meters. The main goal of "Small Flexi Units" is to help dynamic companies grow, but the space is also suitable as a more flexible option for larger companies. Three of the four units in Building 2 have already been occupied by a global freight forwarding company, a collection and sorting machine manufacturer, and a logistics company.

"In the first quarter of this year, the Slovak real estate market exceeded the limit of three mil. m2 of existing industrial and logistics space, which means that it has more than tripled in the last decade,” the company said, adding that for the logistics and industrial real estate segment it was 2020, despite a year-on-year decline of 40 percent in the first three quarters, stronger in terms of volume than 2019. "Even the pandemic did not weaken this sector and managed to maintain its long-term dominant position on the Slovak real estate market," the company adds.
The global pandemic has forever changed the logistics real estate market: supply chain decision-making is more holistic, data-driven and faster than before. This change was triggered by factors such as urbanization, digitization and demography, which have also changed the way we live, work and shop. Demographic, economic and technological megatrends will continue to shape the future of planning in the retail and supply chain. Long-term structural growth in demand for logistics real estate will also increase, at least over the next decade. In the next research report, Prologis Research will continue to examine supply chain and inventory developments in the context of future structural changes.
