LaSalle’s European Paths of Distribution Score 2024

One of our key conviction sectors for real estate investment over the last few years has been logistics. It has been a particular focus of our research, as we seek to identify investment opportunities in prime locations. But with continued uncertainty around variables such as energy prices and supply chains being disrupted, cost uncertainty is high across the continent for logistics providers.

Location, however, is a key variable which distributors can still control, and so it is more important than ever: optimising your choice of location can help minimise exposure to these other risks and protect your supply chain.

LaSalle’s inaugural “Paths of Distribution Score,” focuses on the geography of the European logistics market. This innovative, granular new research gives us the ability to compare logistics locations at a micro, market, country and pan-European level, with extensive flexibility for understanding, benchmarking and ranking locations – and opportunities to deploy capital – at both micro and macro scale. As investors in the sector, this new insight into the most resilient logistics markets in Europe informs our portfolio composition and asset management.
