Colliers Czech Podcast: What’s Holding Back Industrial Development?

In this episode, we talk with Pavel Rufert from Logicor and Milan Růžička from Colliers about the current state of the industrial real estate market in the Czech Republic.
The discussion focuses on slowing construction activity, lengthy permitting processes, a shortage of quality land, and economic uncertainty that leads to project delays. The guests share their hands-on experience and offer insights into how the market is evolving and what strategies can help overcome current challenges.

Key topics:

  • Why industrial projects are being postponed and what could restart them
  • Changing expectations of tenants and investors
  • ESG, sustainability, and the pressure for efficiency
  • Outlook for the coming months and what could help revive the market

Both guests agree that despite the challenges, the Czech market remains attractive – but flexibility, cooperation with municipalities, and long-term planning are essential.
