Panattoni Europe, Poland’s leader in the industrial property market, has commenced the biggest construction project in the market this year. It is the central warehouse for Castorama Polska with 50,000 sqm of space. The facility will be one of the largest in the market and is being erected in Stryków – the developer’s strategic location.
Project completion is planned for Q1 of 2014.
According to Robert Dobrzycki, Managing Partner for Central and Eastern Europe Panattoni Europe: ” This is a very important transaction for us, as well as for the whole sector. It shows growth opportunities not only for the development sector, but also the immense efforts and contribution of Castorama Polska into the success of the DIY sector in Poland.” He adds: “The facility for Castorama Polska is another huge project implemented by Panattoni Europe in the market”.
Dariusz Barszczewski, Logistics Director at Castorama Polska, said: “As the largest DIY chain in Poland, Castorama must have a logistics centre matching its needs. It is an important element of our commercial strategy, which assumes effective management of supplies from various sources and continuous improvement of operational excellence at our stores. The centre in Stryków will enable us to optimise warehousing and transportation costs across the supply chain. From the point of view of our customers, it will additionally support the current availability of our extensive product range, always at the best price”.
