Industrial developer 7R has signed a long-term lease agreement with GXO for approximately 26,000 sqm of warehouse space at 7R Park Lavičky. The modern complex is being developed in a joint venture with Czech investment fund Wood & Company.
GXO, the world's largest pure-play contract logistics provider, will establish a logistics centre at the facility along the D1 motorway connecting Brno and Prague. The centre will deliver 3PL services for L'Oréal to support the beauty company's logistics operations in Europe.
The build-to-suit facility will be tailored to GXO's operational needs and designed for high environmental performance. It will incorporate energy-efficient solutions, including LED lighting with intelligent control systems and a photovoltaic installation. Given GXO's specific operations, the building will include a dedicated hazardous materials storage area with required fire protection systems.
Jiří Duchoň, Head of 7R Czechia, said: "Signing the lease agreement with GXO marks a major milestone in the development of 7R's operations on the Czech market and confirms the effectiveness of our long-term regional strategy." Štefan Bohoš, Leasing Manager at 7R Czechia, added: "The Czech warehouse and industrial market remains one of the most competitive in the CEE, while continuing to see strong tenant demand."
7R Park Lavičky is located 50 km from Brno and 135 km from Prague, with direct access to the D1 motorway. The project will target Breeam certification at the Excellent level and is planned for delivery in Q1 2027.
