Land

Clear focus, deep local knowledge and the advantage of a longer view.

Power first

Our first filter is power. Eliminating non-viable sites early enables efficiency, focus and crucially, keeps the pipeline clean.

Tier 1 markets: taking a longer view

In constrained Tier 1 markets, we don’t walk away from opportunities with longer lead times – we can structure the opportunity differently, working with the wider GARBE Industrial platform. Sites waiting on power or permitting can be put to productive use, generating income and maturing quietly until power, land and permitting clears and the asset is ready to be taken to market.

Tier 1 market fringe locations: using our deep local knowledge to uncover gems

Where core locations are constrained, we also look at fringes. GARBE.DC’s approach is systematic: moving outwards to where constraints ease. That process requires granular, current knowledge of each market: where the grid has headroom, where planning departments are receptive, where fiber infrastructure is already in place or arriving soon.

Tier 2 markets: Local knowledge as a structural advantage

That advantage – of GARBE teams across Europe – enables market-beating on-the-ground intelligence. Local teams know which plots are genuinely available, which landowners are serious, which planning environments are navigable, and which are not. This advantage is now delivered a pipeline of live projects and land opportunities.
