The announcement of the prestigious CIJ Awards 2020 real estate results saw another victory for consultancy 108 AGENCY. For the fifth year, we defended out Best Warehouse Real Estate Agency title, affirming our role as market leader in brokering industrial real estate. CIJ, CEE & SEE, the European real estate digital and print news provider, held the 20th annual international CIJ Awards evening. These awards are amongst the most important events within commercial real estate in the Czech Republic. The winners of each category were chosen by an expert jury and CIJ EUROPE readers through online voting. 108 AGENCY was nominated in four categories, and it picked up the winning trophy in the Best Warehouse Real Estate Agency category. The prize is awarded for results achieved over the previous twelve months. Over the course of the past year, 108 AGENCY brokered the lease of over 320,000 sq m of modern industrial premises. We were involved in a number of transactions whose sale or lease exceeded 20,000 sq m. Some of the major transactions concluded over this 12-month period included brokering the sale of 130,000 sq m of land for industrial development for Prologis in Chrášťany, brokering the lease of 21,450 sq m of industrial and office premises to Minth GmBG at Prologis Park Prague-Úžice, and negotiating the lease of 11,646 sq m of premium industrial and office space to M. Preymesser Logistics at P3 Mladá Boleslav. Through these and many other completed deals, 108 AGENCY gained the largest market share of the Czech industrial real estate market. In 2020, we also set up a new subsidiary in Hungary, and we are working on a number of innovative projects, including an interactive map of industrial development in the Czech Republic. “This year’s win is of huge value to me, and I truly appreciate it. Considering the unstable situation and the changes which are currently taking place not just within the Czech market, and also the personnel changes which we dealt with in 2020, I perceive our success as a reaffirmation of our expertise and a great motivation and obligation for the future. The competition was huge, so I am incredibly pleased that we defended our victory for the fifth year, consolidating our position in the market of industrial real estate brokerage. Thank you to all our business partners for their vote of confidence in us, and in particular to our entire team for their commitment and determination, which helps 108 AGENCY in its growth every day,” says Jakub Holec, CEO of 108 AGENCY.
