Liebrecht & Wood

What Liebrecht & Wood does

Liebrecht & Wood is a privately-held Central and Eastern European real estate development company founded in 1994 by Marc Lebbe and Patrick Van den Bossche, headquartered in Warsaw, Poland. The company develops, sells, and leases commercial and residential real estate — including offices, retail and outlet centres, retail parks, warehouses, and residential masterplans — across Poland and Romania, with additional corporate entities in Belgium and Luxembourg. Its portfolio comprises approximately 50 delivered projects with a cumulative market value of over EUR 1 billion and more than 1,000 signed lease agreements, anchored by signature assets such as Centrum Praskie Koneser (a 74,600 sqm mixed-use lifestyle centre in Warsaw's Praga district built on a historic 19th-century vodka distillery site), Liziera de Lac (a 3,800-unit residential development in Bucharest), and a network of Fashion House outlet centres across both countries.

The underlying technology and capabilities are concentrated in sustainable building design, with 75% of projects BREEAM certified and a public commitment to carbon-neutral operations by 2040, supported by a formal GRI-based ESG materiality assessment covering all employees. The company operates an in-house property management subsidiary, WeCARE, which provides post-completion operational management for completed assets including Centrum Marszałkowska (acquired in 2019). Development expertise spans complex adaptive reuse of post-industrial heritage sites and greenfield mixed-use masterplanning, with a talent base of 150 professionals across the group.

Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time real estate development sales (recognized at delivery), recurring rental income from leasing (1000+ multi-year lease agreements), and managed services fees through WeCARE. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market is sales-led and enterprise-focused, targeting leading domestic and international companies for office, retail, and warehouse tenancies through direct field sales rather than third-party brokerage. Customer segments are predominantly commercial tenants (enterprise) with a residential secondary segment aimed at individuals and families in Romania. Enterprise customers are diverse across industries, with the only named logo being Marriott International for the Moxy Warsaw Praga Hotel.
