Frequently Asked Questions

France offers exceptional connectivity to European markets through its extensive motorway network, major ports, and rail infrastructure. The country's central location within Europe, combined with strong domestic consumer demand and established logistics clusters around major cities, creates compelling investment fundamentals for industrial real estate.

We analyse multiple factors including transport connectivity, labour availability, planning permissions, and operational costs. Our site selection process considers proximity to key distribution routes, workforce demographics, utility availability, and expansion potential to ensure locations support both immediate requirements and future growth.

Greater Paris remains the dominant logistics hub, with significant activity in Val-de-Marne and Seine-et-Marne. Lyon offers excellent multimodal connectivity, while Lille provides strategic access to northern European markets. Emerging markets include Marseille for Mediterranean distribution and Strasbourg for Central European connectivity.

French planning law requires careful navigation of local zoning requirements and environmental assessments. We guide clients through the permitting process, ensuring compliance with regulations while optimising development timelines. Our expertise in French planning procedures helps avoid delays and regulatory complications. 

France has implemented stringent energy efficiency standards for commercial buildings, including logistics facilities. We help clients understand BREEAM certification requirements, energy performance mandates, and carbon reduction obligations, ensuring properties meet current standards and future regulatory expectations.
