The industrial real-estate market is booming in Central and Eastern Europe, thanks to the region’s geography and cheap labor along with the benefits of Europe’s unified currency and lack of trade restrictions.

The math is simple: the facilities can be built and operated at low cost in countries like Poland or the Czech Republic and still serve affluent markets of high-cost countries such as Germany, Switzerland and France.
