Garbe Industrial Real Estate GmbH has signed a significant rental agreement, securing a new tenant in the outdoor equipment industry for its 55,000-square-metre logistics facility in Ludwigsau, Hesse.
The lease marks another success for Garbe Industrial Real Estate, following a series of recent high-profile lettings. Adrian Zellner, Member of the Executive Board, emphasized the importance of this latest deal, highlighting the company’s ability to maintain momentum in an evolving market. He expressed gratitude to everyone involved in finalizing the lease and noted that the transaction reinforces the continued demand for high-quality logistics properties.
The state-of-the-art logistics facility, developed by Garbe Industrial Real Estate and built by Fabrikon as the general contractor, consists of two parallel buildings in the Mecklar-Meckbach industrial estate. The €100 million investment is strategically located within the Bad Hersfeld, Bebra, and Rotenburg an der Fulda triangle, offering excellent transport connectivity.
Prior to this agreement, Garbe Industrial Real Estate had leased 32,000 square metres of the facility to a leading car manufacturer for spare parts storage. An additional 8,400 square metres remain available for immediate lease.
Developed as a multi-user facility without fixed rental commitments, the Ludwigsau complex has proven to be a highly attractive logistics location. Zellner noted that the recent lease agreements demonstrate that demand for premium logistics space remains strong, even in challenging market conditions. The facility meets internationally recognized ESG standards and has been awarded Gold certification by the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB).
The prime location of the site ensures seamless access to key transport routes. It is directly connected to the A4 motorway (Kirchheim-Dresden) via the B27 federal road (Göttingen-Fulda), with the Kirchheimer Dreieck junction providing access to the A7 motorway, one of Germany’s major north-south transport corridors.
The real estate service provider CBRE acted as the broker for the transaction, further solidifying Garbe Industrial Real Estate’s strong position in the logistics sector.
