Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to rent a warehouse in Riga in 2026?
Class A base rent is €4.50–6.50/m²/month net — highest in the Mārupe airport corridor, lower in Olaine and Stopiņi. Class B space costs €3.75–4.50/m². The market-wide median asking rent, older Class C stock included, is about €4.00/m²/month (Rentful market data, July 2026). For example, a 2,000 m² Class A warehouse at €5.00/m² costs €10,000/month in base rent before service charges, utilities and VAT.
What is the difference between Class A, B and C warehouses?
Class A means 10–12 m clear height, floor load of at least 5 t/m², dock levellers, an ESFR sprinkler system, LED lighting and energy-efficient heating. Class B is older or lower-spec stock with 6–8 m height; Class C is Soviet-era stock with limited truck access. Height directly determines pallet positions per square metre, so Class A is often better value than cheaper but lower space.
What costs come on top of the base rent?
Warehouse leases in Latvia are typically net leases: on top of base rent you pay a service charge, utilities on actual consumption and 21% VAT. The biggest variable is heating during the season (December–March) — in older, poorly insulated buildings winter bills can far exceed summer costs, so compare building energy efficiency, not just the headline rate. Annual indexation linked to a consumer price index is also standard.
How much warehouse space do I need for my pallet count?
With conventional racking in a 10+ m building, plan on roughly 1.2–1.8 m² of floor area per pallet position including aisles and handling zones — about 1,200–1,800 m² for 1,000 pallet positions. In lower buildings with fewer rack levels the required area grows. For a precise figure use the Rentful pallet calculator (rentful.eu/warehouse-calculator).
Where are the main logistics corridors around Riga?
The four main corridors are Mārupe (airport corridor on the A5 — the highest rates, €5.50–6.50/m²), Olaine (A8 southern corridor, €4.50–5.50/m²), Stopiņi and Dreiliņi (Via Baltica eastern ring, €4.50–5.50/m²) and Rumbula (A6 to the southeast, €4.80–5.80/m²). Airport proximity and quick motorway access are the main price drivers.
How many warehouses are there in Riga and Latvia?
