GALWAY OFFICE MARKET
VERY LOW VACANCY RATES IN GALWAY AT PRESENT WITH ONLY 7.5% VACANCY
AT THE END OF MARCH 2015. THIS DEARTH OF SUPPLY IS EVEN MORE ACUTE
WHEN IT COMES TO LARGE FLOOR PLATE ACCOMMODATION
The acute shortage of supply in the city centre has
resulted in more occupiers looking to the suburbs, in
particular to satisfy larger requirements. The proportion
of larger Grade A offices has declined rapidly in the
suburbs as demand continues to increase.
Demand for offices in Galway is led by multi-national
companies looking for high quality large offices.
