Among the projects to be developed in the state are from expansions of industrial zones to reconfiguration of spaces, to transform warehouses into production spaces or to carry out logistics operations.

“There are some that are extensions, that reconfigure their warehouses, instead of being warehouses they are for the logistics or production industry, but there is still an appetite for investment in the state,” he commented.

Marco Antonio del Prete Tercero estimated that there has been a low level of vacancy in the industrial real estate market, after the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

However, he said, it is expected that the greatest impact will be concentrated in the office market, after having transitioned to the work-from-home modality, as a result of the pandemic.

During the first quarter of the year, the industrial real estate market in Querétaro stood out within the Bajío region, where demand has been driven by the requirements of custom spaces, according to studies by the Solili real estate platform.
