In 2025, HelloParks continued to expand its presence in Hungary’s industrial real estate market, while progressing its strategy focused on sustainability-certified logistics and industrial space. In its fifth year of operation, the company completed a major portfolio transaction, delivered new developments around Budapest and increased the volume of space compliant with EU Taxonomy and BREEAM standards.
The PT2 and PT3 warehouse halls at HelloParks Páty (Budapest West), providing a combined 84,000 sq m of industrial and logistics space, were acquired by the ERSTE Open-Ended Real Estate Investment Fund. Each hall comprises 42,000 sq m and meets the “Outstanding” level under the BREEAM New Construction scheme, while also complying with EU Taxonomy requirements. The transaction received the Real Estate Investment Transaction of the Year award.
During the year, all eight operational halls in HelloParks’ portfolio were verified as compliant with EU Taxonomy criteria, covering the full life cycle of the buildings from construction to operation. In addition, the company delivered two new BigBox-type developments in 2025: the 46,000 sq m FT3 hall at Fót (Budapest North) and the 42,000 sq m PT5 hall at Páty (Budapest West). As a result, the total completed area in the portfolio reached 500,000 sq m. A further 46,000 sq m is scheduled for delivery in 2026 with the MG4 development in Maglód, near Budapest Airport. According to the company, 79% of space that has received occupancy permits is already leased.
“Sustainability pays off commercially too, because our modern buildings not only enable efficient operations, but also make a significant contribution to our tenants’ ability to achieve their ESG goals,” said Rudolf Nemes, CEO of HelloParks. Anna Bencze, Sustainability Manager at HelloParks, added: “Our example can serve as a guide for the entire sector, allowing us to create an even greater impact on the sustainability of our environment,” noting that the company aims not only to meet regulatory requirements but also to set new standards.
From 1 January 2025, HelloParks has covered the full electricity demand of its portfolio with renewable energy, sourced from on-site solar installations and certified guarantees of origin. In the same year, the company’s megaparks in Fót, Maglód and Páty were awarded the Local Logistics Park title under a programme organised by Hungary’s Ministry for National Economy.
Leasing activity remained strong across the portfolio. In Maglód, tenant demand increased further, with HGL leasing an additional 10,000 sq m, bringing its total space at the site to 15,000 sq m. The MG1 and MG3 halls in Maglód together provide 91,000 sq m of leasable space and are fully occupied. At the same time, the PT3 hall at Páty received the Logistics Development of the Year award at the 2025 Real Estate Awards.
HelloParks marked its fifth anniversary together with employees, tenants, partners and investors. Since its launch, the company’s development programme has been structured around a sustainability-driven business model, resulting in the delivery of approximately half a million square metres of industrial and logistics space within five years, occupied by a mix of international and domestic companies.
