JLL with the largest market share

International advisory firm JLL summarized and analyzed all office lease transactions completed during the first three quarters of 2015. Over 1 million sqm of office space was leased in Poland between Q1 and Q3 2015. It is over 340,000 sq  more than in the corresponding period of 2014 and 280,000 sqm more than in 2013. Many companies consolidated their operations in Poland and therefore, major lease agreements were signed. Furthermore, numerous new companies entered the market while those already operating in Poland expanded their operations and structures. Many new records were reported: 22,000 sqm leased by R&D company in the Warsaw Spire (historically the biggest lease deal signed in Warsaw City Center) and 26,000 sqm leased by a company from the modern business services sector in Kraków (historically the biggest lease agreement signed outside Warsaw). Both these transactions were conducted with JLL strategic advice. “During Q1-Q3 2015, the JLL team advised on 136 lease agreements totaling 225,000 sqm of office space. In Warsaw alone, we participated in transactions on 142,000 sqm, earning the biggest agent market share – 28 percent, according to data collected by Polish Office Research Forum. Furthermore, we finalized lease deals totaling 83,000 sqm outside Warsaw. This confirms strong tenants activity on the regional markets,” informed Anna Młyniec, Head of Office Agency and Tenant Representation at JLL. JLL occupies the top leading position not only in Warsaw but also in other major agglomerations.
