Q4 2025: Czech industrial market driven by strong demand and manufacturing
The Czech industrial market closed 2025 with a strong rebound in leasing activity, primarily driven by the manufacturing sector. Annual net take-up reached 1.25 million sqm, representing a 39% year-on-year increase. In Q4 alone, net take-up amounted to 372,300 sqm, with new leases accounting for the majority of demand.

Development activity remained robust, while new supply was largely absorbed by the market. A total of 229,000 sqm of industrial space was delivered in 2025, more than doubling year-on-year. Notably, 73% of space completed in Q4 was already pre-leased. The construction pipeline reached 1.25 million sqm (+27% y/y), underlining developers’ continued confidence in the Czech industrial sector.
Although the vacancy rate increased year-on-year to 4.8%, it remains at a level that continues to limit the availability of high-quality space in core locations. Prime rents remained stable quarter-on-quarter across all major markets, standing at €7.25/sqm/month in Prague and Central Bohemia. The combination of stable rents, strong tenant demand and a high share of pre-leases confirms the Czech Republic’s position as one of the most attractive industrial and manufacturing hubs in Central Europe heading into 2026.
