Warehouses De Pauw
WDP: “WDP is a leading European logistics real estate company operating in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, and Romania.”
What is a build-to-suit warehouse?
“A build-to-suit warehouse is a logistics facility designed and built around one company's specific operational requirements, covering automation level, temperature control, dock configuration and clear height, rather than a standard shell adapted afterward. The building is engineered to match how the operation actually works, not the other way round.”

“Leasing an existing warehouse is faster: the building already exists, so occupation can start within weeks. Build-to-suit takes longer, typically 12 to 15 months from contract signing, but the facility is designed entirely around the company's process from day one. In both cases the business leases rather than owns, so the investment stays off the balance sheet.”

“In a build-to-suit project, WDP funds, develops and owns the asset as landlord, while the company/tenant leases a facility designed entirely around its operation. Building independently means carrying the capital outlay, permitting risk and long-term ownership and maintenance liability directly. Build-to-suit delivers the same tailored outcome without that balance sheet or operational burden.”
