Logivest brokers 11,000 sq m logistics facility to Magnera near French border

15 January 2026

Logivest has brokered a long-term lease of a logistics property in Gaggenau to Magnera. The facility, located at Max-Roth-Straße 5, is managed by Hillwood.

Magnera was seeking a logistics site to support its production operations in Gernsbach. Logivest identified a suitable property less than ten minutes away, enabling the company to consolidate its warehouse operations close to the manufacturing facility. The mandate was placed via the logistics service provider exchange Logivisor.com.

The property offers close to 11,000 sq m of warehouse space, including a mezzanine level, as well as more than 500 sq m of office accommodation. The facility features a covered side delivery area suitable for handling large paper rolls in all weather conditions, supported by ten loading ramps and three ground-level access gates. The landlord is upgrading the existing sprinkler system to meet fire safety and insurance requirements. The building also benefits from 24/7 operating approval.

In addition to its proximity to the production site, the location provides good access to the A5 motorway, a key north–south route connecting Basel, Karlsruhe and Frankfurt.

“After the negative headlines from the automotive industry, this lease is an important signal for Baden-Württemberg as a business location,” said Kathrin Ziegler, Consultant Industrial and Logistics Letting at Logivest Stuttgart. Tobias Rollnik added that several high-quality logistics properties are currently available along the A5 corridor and near the French border. “These are exciting options, particularly for hazardous goods storage or consolidation uses, as both the site layout and transport connections are well suited to these requirements,” he said.

Magnera is expected to take occupation of the new logistics space in the first quarter of 2026.
