Why a Lithuanian Developer Is Ploughing €7.7m Into Croatia’s Commercial Property Market

PORTUM’s first Croatian move: a compact but telling bet on commercial property Croatia

Lithuanian commercial developer PORTUM has announced a €7.7 million investment, excluding VAT, to buy land and build two business complexes in Croatia’s Zagreb and Varaždin. This is more than a routine market entry: it signals confidence in demand for modern commercial and light-industrial premises in two cities that matter for logistics and services. For buyers, occupiers and investors watching the real estate Croatia sector, the deal raises practical questions about supply, timing and the type of product developers now bring to market.

PORTUM plans construction on a 6,000 sq m site in Zagreb with a 2,479 sq m commercial building, and on a 5,000 sq m site in Varaždin with a 1,949 sq m building.

Both sites are designed to meet Croatia’s A++ energy-efficiency classification, will include electric-vehicle charging stations, generous parking and infrastructure that separates passenger and freight traffic. The company manages roughly 70,000 sq m of commercial premises in four countries and ten cities and says it identified a shortage of newly built commercial and industrial space in its Croatian market review.

In this article we examine what PORTUM’s move means for the Croatian commercial property market, who should pay attention, the practical benefits of the buildings’ specifications and the risks that could slow the projects down. We also give a checklist for investors and occupiers considering similar developments or leases.
