European Industrial Property Association
About

The body for Europe's industrial property agents.

EIREA exists to give Europe's industrial and logistics property agents a professional standard, a shared register, and a designation that means something in every market. Industrial property is a discipline, not a category — and it deserves a body of its own.

What we do

We keep the register

The only pan-European register of industrial and logistics property agents. Verified firm by firm, and kept current.

We set the standard

A code of professional conduct, a specification for how industrial specialism is stated, and a designation — M.EIREA and F.EIREA — that a buyer can check.

We publish the numbers

The market's take-up, rents, vacancy and cross-border flows, reported for industrial property alone. The reference the trade press quotes.

Governance

The board

Elected from the membership, with published terms of office and a published register of interests. Officers are named, with real roles and real accountability.

The code of conduct

Every member agrees to a code of professional conduct. We publish it in full, and we publish when it is enforced. An association that will not enforce its own standard is not setting one.

The accounts

Annual accounts, published in full. An association that collects subscriptions should account for them.

How the register may be used

The terms of access, the database-right notice and the privacy notice, all published in plain English rather than left for a lawyer to interpret.

Complaints

How to raise a concern about a member or a listing, what we do about it, and how long we take. Published, with the process the same for everyone.

Membership

Who may join, at what grade, what each grade requires and how a grade is earned or lost. No hidden criteria.

What we stand for

The specialist is recognised as the specialist.

Depth of specialism is a credential, and it should carry the weight of one. That is what EIREA is for: a register that verifies who does this work, a standard they are held to, and a mark that proves it.

Industrial property is a profession in its own right, and EIREA is its body in Europe.

“Industrial property is not a sector we serve. It is the whole of what we do.”
