Logistics Point Raszyn is located on the outskirts of Warsaw, just 12 km from the city centre. The park consists of two warehouse buildings with a total GLA of 31,000 sqm. Logistics Point Piaseczno comprises two warehouse facilities with a total GLA of 25,000 sqm. The park is situated near National Road No. 79 and the railway station in Nowa Iwiczna, only 16 km south of the city centre. The modernization of the facilities was carried out while tenants maintained complete business-operational activity.

Logistics Point Raszyn, along with Logistics Point Piaseczno and City Point Targówek, is part of the real estate portfolio acquired by Peakside and Partners Group in early 2022. After the completed modernization of all facilities, the portfolio will provide the market with approximately 150,000 sqm of modern logistics space.
