After 2025 marked by intense negotiations, permitting progress, and a concentrated effort to lease up its portfolio, cy.capital is preparing for a new phase in 2026. The firm is set to begin a fresh operational cycle, with active construction sites, capital calls, and the simultaneous execution of multiple projects, following what partner and director Bruno Ackermann calls “a year of a lot of energy and not much concrete going up.” 

Ackermann explains that 2025 was dedicated primarily to leasing the existing assets and unlocking regulatory approvals for land acquired between 2024 and early this year. 

“2025 was a year of major challenges. Our focus was much more on leasing the existing portfolio and advancing project approvals for the sites we bought last year. It ended up being a year with little construction; we didn’t actually develop many warehouses. The team’s energy was centered on commercialization—mainly leasing, but also on the sale of the portfolio we recently announced—along with permitting the new projects, which has become an increasing challenge for any developer. It was a demanding year, but with strong results,” he says. 

The manager closed leases, completed sales, and advanced approvals in high-demand markets such as the city of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. 

The pivot comes in 2026, when most permitting processes should be completed and projects begin moving into execution. Next year is expected to bring groundbreaking activity, product design refinement, and the effective allocation of capital. 

“It’s the phase when you see the warehouse going up, you call capital from investors, you track costs, and you see the thing come to life,” says Ackermann. “2025 was more of a planting year, and 2026 will be the harvest.”
