News 27/11/2025

Hamburg/Kamen, 27 November 2025 – Garbe Industrial is constructing a new multifunctional property for light industrial, production, storage and distribution purposes in Kamen (Unna district), North Rhine-Westphalia. The property is being built on a plot of land measuring around 27,300 square metres and is planned to have a total area of 18,700 square metres. With planning permission already in place, construction work is now set to begin shortly. The investment volume amounts to around 28.5 million euros.

The site is located in the industrial estate on Henry-Everling-Straße within sight of the A1 motorway, which links the Hamburg metropolitan region with the greater Cologne area and is one of the most important north-south axes in Germany. The Kamen-Zentrum junction can be reached within four minutes. From there, it is six kilometres via the A1 motorway to the Kamener Kreuz interchange with the A2 Oberhausen – Berlin motorway. “The central location at one of Germany’s busiest transport hubs makes the site a particularly sought-after centre for companies that want to move and distribute goods efficiently,” emphasises Frank Soppa, Regional Manager Project Development West at Garbe Industrial. “Such a prime piece of real estate in the eastern Ruhr area is a rarity, and we are very happy that a property with great potential is being developed at this outstanding location.”

A property with a hall area of around 16,500 square metres is planned on the site. In addition, there will be 500 square metres for offices and social rooms and 1,700 square metres of mezzanine space. The new building will be equipped with 17 dock levellers and two sectional doors at ground level. The outdoor area will provide parking for 30 cars and three trucks. The property is suitable for contract-based and distribution-oriented services as well as for light industrial and production purposes. “The project is being developed with a view to the future. We are already in talks with potentially interested parties,” says Frank Soppa. The market analyses conducted so far as part of the site selection process leave him feeling confident: “We assume that the property will be fully leased during the construction phase.” Completion is scheduled for the third quarter of 2026.

Garbe Industrial is aiming for the property to be certified according to the gold standard of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB). Heating will be provided by air heat pumps, and no fossil fuels will be used. In addition, a photovoltaic system is to be installed on the entire roof area.

The estate agent Immolox in Frankfurt brokered the property purchase.
