Finland Figures Industrial & Logistics Q1 2025

The I&L sector began the year slowly, experiencing low investment volumes. All investments originated from cross-border investors and were concentrated in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area (HMA). Despite the slow start, several investors are actively seeking opportunities in the market. The most notable transaction of the quarter was a deal advised by CBRE on the buy-side, in which Julius Tallberg Kiinteistöt sold an industrial property in Suutarila, Helsinki, with Ramirent as the main tenant.

The logistics prime yield decreased by 10 basis points to 5.40%, while the prime warehouse yield remained steady at 6.75% and the prime light industrial yield stands at 7.75%. Overall, the prime logistics yield is currently 160 basis points higher than the lows recorded in 2022.

According to CBRE’s Nordic Investor Intention Survey, the majority of I&L investors (73%) are focusing on value-add and core-plus investments. Alternative investment sectors attracting investor interest in I&L include data centers and infrastructure.
