Industrial property broker in Germany: warehouse, logistics and production space in North Rhine-Westphalia.
TOLERO International helps international companies find industrial and logistics premises in North Rhine-Westphalia — warehouses, logistics facilities, production and industrial units and development land, to let or for sale. We do not advertise properties on this website. We take your requirement profile, match it confidentially against space that owners offer to us, and approach further owners directly where nothing is advertised. The firm is owner-managed, run personally by Tolga Eroglu from Solingen, and licensed under section 34c of the German Trade Regulation Act (§ 34c GewO).
Why North Rhine-Westphalia.
For a company entering Germany, the reasons to look at North Rhine-Westphalia are geographic.
Several major motorway corridors cross the state: the A1 running north-south from the Hanseatic ports through the Ruhr and Cologne, the A2 eastwards towards Hanover and Berlin, the A3 along the Rhine from the Dutch border towards Frankfurt, the A40 through the Ruhr conurbation, and the A45 towards the Sauerland and Hesse. The motorway junction that serves a site can matter as much as the town it lies in.
Duisburg's inland port is a trimodal hub where inland waterway, rail and road meet. Cologne/Bonn, Düsseldorf and Dortmund airports are within the state, and the Belgian and Dutch borders are close — relevant where European distribution runs through Antwerp or Rotterdam.
We do not quote rents, yields or market statistics here; such figures are meaningful only for a specific building.
What we do for international companies.
You may know exactly what your operation needs, but not how the German market for industrial space works. That is where we come in.
It is equally important to say what we do not do. TOLERO International is a commercial property agency. We do not give legal, tax or immigration advice, we do not prepare planning or change-of-use applications, we do not act as translators and we do not incorporate companies. For those matters please instruct German lawyers (Rechtsanwalt), tax advisers (Steuerberater) and specialist planners, and speak to the relevant local building authority (Bauamt) and the regional economic development agency.
Advice is given personally in German and English; other languages on request through partners. A Chinese page is available at 中文.
Property types we work with.
The German market separates these categories more sharply than the English word "warehouse" suggests, and the distinction affects planning permission and specification alike.
Where we search within North Rhine-Westphalia.
The state is not one market but several. Knowing which sub-region fits your operation helps to narrow a search.
The Rhineland — Cologne, Düsseldorf, Bonn, Neuss, Krefeld and Mönchengladbach — is served by the A1, A3, A57 and A59, within reach of Cologne/Bonn and Düsseldorf airports. The Ruhr area — Duisburg, Essen, Bochum, Oberhausen and Dortmund — lies along the A2, A40, A42 and A43, with the Port of Duisburg at its western end. The Bergisches Land — Wuppertal, Solingen and Remscheid, where our office is — is shaped by metalworking and toolmaking. Westphalia — Münster, Bielefeld, Hamm and Paderborn — is served by the A1, A2, A33 and A44.
Our focus is North Rhine-Westphalia; outside NRW we work in 12 logistics regions in Germany (in German), other regions on request. The city pages below are in German.
How we work.
Four steps, from the first conversation to completion — with no obligation until a written agreement is in place.
Requirement profile
You describe area, intended use, target region and timing, in English or German. If it is a requirement we cannot serve well, we say so at once.
Confidential matching
We compare your profile with the premises that owners offer to us for letting or sale. Your identity is not disclosed without your consent — relevant when an expansion is confidential.
Direct approach to owners
If nothing suitable is available, we contact owners in your target region directly, including those who have never offered their building. This takes time, and we say so.
Shortlist, viewings, completion
You receive a shortlist with reasons for each property, not a longlist. We organise viewings, gather the documents your advisers need, and support you through the negotiation to completion.
Questions from international enquirers.
Do you publish available properties on this website?
No. Owners who want discretion can only be reached through direct, confidential contact; confidentiality is the basis of that cooperation. You therefore receive a shortlist personally, after we have matched it against your requirement profile, rather than a list of advertisements.
In which regions do you operate?
Our focus is North Rhine-Westphalia: the Rhineland, the Ruhr area, the Bergisches Land and Westphalia. Outside NRW we take on search mandates and marketing in 12 logistics regions, such as Hamburg, Berlin, Leipzig/Halle, Frankfurt/Rhine-Main and Munich; other regions on request. We do not claim to cover the whole of Germany, and we will say so plainly if a location lies outside what we can serve properly.
Which languages do you work in?
Advice is given personally in German and English. Further languages, including Chinese, are available on request through partners. Land registry extracts (Grundbuchauszug) are issued in German, and contracts and building documentation may be in German as well, so translations should be arranged with a qualified translator where they are needed.
What are your fees?
Our commission is charged according to our terms and conditions, which are published on this website.
Can you help with permits, contracts or company formation?
No. We are a commercial property agency, not a law firm, a firm of tax advisers or a planning consultancy. We do not provide legal, tax, immigration or permit advice, and we do not set up companies. For those matters please instruct German lawyers (Rechtsanwalt), tax advisers (Steuerberater) and specialist planners, and speak to the relevant local building authority (Bauamt) and the regional economic development agency. We are happy to work alongside the advisers you appoint.
