Find suitable logistics locations in Germany
Before looking for warehouse to rent, companies should think about suitable locations and analyze them according to the most relevant location factors. Some important location factors are:
- Location factor taxes: Tax aspects can influence the choice of location. In particular, trade tax should be mentioned here. The rates of assessment of the cities and municipalities vary greatly.
- Infrastructure: Proximity to infrastructural facilities such as the motorway, airport, port or train station is one of the most important location factors when choosing a logistics location. Often even locations without cross-town streets and traffic lights are specified as criteria.
- Funding opportunities: In structurally weak regions, investments are often supported with funding. However, logistics investments are often excluded from these subsidies, as they bring fewer jobs compared to the manufacturing industry. Nevertheless, it may be worth checking for funding opportunities.
- Labour costs: Labour costs include all personnel costs that arise through human effort, i.e. through workers in a company. They differ regionally and are collected at the state level. A comparison of the cost structure can influence the economical KPIs of the logistics propery.
- Qualification of labour: The qualification of the workforce and the general availability of staff is an important part of your location decision. For running a logistics property, fewer employees with academic qualifications are needed than employees with vocational training. Often no professional training is necessary and staff can be trained for the job.
