FM newsroom – logistics operation. Polish logistics developer 7R is entering the German market with a €200 million investment partnership to build modern industrial and warehouse facilities. The move marks a key milestone in the company’s broader strategy to expand across Europe.
A Strategic Step into Germany
Commercial real estate developer 7R has taken another step in its international growth strategy by launching operations in Germany. The Warsaw-based company has signed a €200 million Separate Managed Account (SMA) partnership to finance the development of modern logistics and industrial projects across the country.
The partnership follows binding agreements signed in 2025 to acquire the company’s first investment in Germany, laying the foundation for its long-term presence in the market.
“This partnership represents a natural continuation of our consistent and successful operations in Poland and Czechia, while also marking a significant step in 7R’s expansion across key European markets. Our entry into Germany demonstrates the maturity of our operating platform and our readiness to scale it further”, said Andrzej Wroński, CEO of 7R.
Backed by Institutional Investment
7R is majority owned by NSF 5, a fund managed by Urban Partners, a European urban investment firm with approximately €25 billion in assets under management.
Urban Partners’ portfolio includes more than 2 million sqm of sustainable logistics and industrial space across Northern Europe, including around 250,000 sqm already located in Germany. With this institutional backing, 7R plans to scale up its development pipeline and deliver high-quality logistics facilities tailored to modern supply chains.
Focus on Major Urban Logistics Hubs
The company’s German strategy will concentrate on the country’s largest economic centres: Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt, Stuttgart and Düsseldorf.
In these key markets, 7R intends to develop two main product lines — 7R City Flex and 7R City Park — both designed to support efficient urban logistics close to densely populated areas and major transport routes.
In 2026, the developer plans to expand through several acquisitions, including both development land and standing logistics assets.
Strong Fundamentals Drive Demand
According to Magdalena Uler-Kłeczek, Board Member and CIO at 7R, Germany remains one of Europe’s most attractive logistics markets thanks to its strong industrial base, central geographic location and highly developed transport infrastructure.
The company is currently nearing completion of its first project in Germany while simultaneously exploring several additional opportunities.
Logistics Market Continues to Expand
The German warehouse and logistics market recorded nearly 6.1 million sqm of take-up in 2025, a 14% increase from 2024.
Market data shows that large-scale logistics facilities played a major role in this growth. The segment of properties larger than 20,000 sqm expanded by around 30%, with logistics service providers responsible for nearly half of the activity.
The data also points to renewed demand from e-commerce companies, many of which increasingly rely on third-party logistics operators to manage their operations in Germany.
