Liepāja Industrial Park ranked among the world’s top 10 industrial and logistics projects for investment

The projects selected by Real FDI reflect the diversity and scale of current investment opportunities. They range from major freeports and established industrial districts to brownfield regeneration projects and airport-linked logistics hubs.

According to Real FDI, these projects collectively demonstrate how connectivity, infrastructure, available land and increasingly advanced industrial ecosystems are shaping the next generation of investment destinations. “Countries are no longer competing solely to attract investment, but also to provide the industrial infrastructure required by investors.”

Real FDI has highlighted 10 of the world’s most promising industrial and logistics investment projects. Located in different countries, they represent a variety of development models—from major industrial centres in Germany and Spain to emerging logistics hubs in Iceland, Romania, Latvia, the United Kingdom and Mexico.

Liepāja Industrial Park received particular recognition for embedding sustainable thinking in its “genetic code”, with clearly defined principles of education, innovation and the circular economy. The former Liepājas metalurgs steelworks site is gradually being reintegrated into the city, making it accessible to the public and attractive to investors.

Liepāja Industrial Park is being developed jointly by the Liepāja SEZ Authority and Liepāja City Municipality on the former Liepājas metalurgs site, between Brīvības iela, Meldru iela, Ezermalas iela, Parka iela and Zemnieku iela. The site borders Lake Liepāja, a specially protected Natura 2000 nature area.

Under the approved development strategy, the project aims to attract more than EUR 275 million in private investment and create at least 1,500 new jobs.
