FORCADELL advises Galitrans on its move to a new logistics warehouse in Parets del Vallès

FORCADELL has advised the logistics operator Galitrans on its move to a new warehouse located in the Can Volard industrial estate, in Parets del Vallès. This operation allows the company to have a larger operational area for the development of its logistics activity.

The new platform has a total surface area of 5,211 m², distributed over 5,055 m² on the ground floor and 156 m² on the mezzanine, as well as 12 loading docks and a large front yard. It is a Class A platform, which meets the highest standards in terms of design, functionality, and efficiency for current logistics operations. Likewise, the asset is prepared for medium risk 5, which reinforces its suitability for safe and versatile operations.

A strategic location in Barcelona’s second logistics ring

The warehouse is located in Parets del Vallès, within Barcelona’s second logistics ring, an area that offers quick access to the AP-7, a key axis for peninsular logistics and connections with the main national and international distribution routes.

The surrounding area is home to leading industrial and logistics companies, which enhances its attractiveness for new operators. In fact, the second ring continues to concentrate a high volume of logistics demand. According to the latest FORCADELL reports, during the first half of 2025 it absorbed 40% of the total contracted surface area and 48% of operations.

In this regard, Gerard Plana, director of FORCADELL’s Industrial and Logistics Department, highlighted that “Barcelona’s second logistics ring, and particularly areas such as Parets del Vallès, has consolidated itself as a strategic location for the sector. Operating from this area and doing so in a platform with such a high dock ratio, like the one occupied by Galitrans, allows having an asset prepared to face current operational challenges with guarantees.”
