The penultimate unit at ARETE Park Rokycany I has been completed and handed over to its new tenant, the local subsidiary of the French company Hutchinson. 


The unit is part of the park's second hall, which offers a total leasable area exceeding 15,000 sqm. The company has signed a long-term lease and will share the hall with another tenant. 

The construction of the second hall at ARETE Park Rokycany I is progressing according to schedule, offering three rental units. A unit covering approximately 4,800 sqm was completed and handed over to Hutchinson. The tenant is the Czech subsidiary of the French company Hutchinson, a member of the multinational conglomerate TotalEnergies. Since 1994, Hutchinson has operated a production facility in another part of Rokycany, specialising in manufacturing rubber components for the automotive industry. 

The total area of ARETE Park Rokycany I exceeds 22,000 sqm, and the technical specifications of both halls meet strict environmental standards, including achieving BREEAM certification. Both halls are fully heated using heat pumps. The park has a direct connection to Exit 62 of the D5 highway, the main transportation route connecting Prague with neighbouring Germany.

The total value of assets under management in the ARETE INDUSTRIAL fund exceeds €300 million. Geographically, the fund’s leasable space is distributed as follows: 48% is in the Czech Republic, 27% in Slovakia, and 25% in Poland.
