Panattoni is developing its latest project tailored for a global brand. A leading global logistics company is to operate on 32,000 sqm of the BTO facility, which is being built in Robakowo near Poznań. Construction work started in May, and in late 2022 or early 2023, the client will gain access to the property. Over 20,000 sqm of the space is designated for the automatic sorting of parcels. The project is to be BREEAM certified and will feature, among others, a 900 kWp solar farm and a heat pump.

The pan-European developer, which entered the Hungarian market a relatively short time ago, sees a lot of opportunities in the countryside to build logistics centres for different end-users. Property Forum asked László Kemenes, Managing Director of the Hungarian branch about the company's plan for expansion and tackling the current general difficulties in the property industry.

Panattoni is planning to deliver a complex of almost 70,000 sqm just 10 km from the centre of the city. A leading provider of modern logistics services in Poland is its first tenant, leasing around 9,000 sqm.

The entire development cost of logistics projects is increasing substantially and it will continue to do so, says Robert Dobrzycki, CEO & Co-Owner of Panattoni. He talked to Property Forum at MIPIM about uncertainties and the dynamic growth of the logistics sector in CEE.

Panattoni has begun constructing 8,700 sqm for InPost within the Central European Logistics Hub in Łódź. In 2021 alone, Panattoni completed logistics centres of nearly 100,000 sqm for InPost within eleven locations. Due to Panattoni’s completed projects both within city limits and on their borders, the end consumer receives quicker service including in small towns.

Panattoni has announced the official opening of a new logistics centre for Action in Bieruń near Tychy. The 60,800 sqm facility has been built as a BTS project and in record time. The project has been BREEAM certified at the ‘Excellent’ level, obtaining the highest score so far at this level among Polish facilities in this category (77.1%). Ultimately, more than 200 people will be employed in the facility.

Czech investment group RSJ and developer Panattoni have agreed on the construction of a new industrial park outside the city of Hradec Kralové. The 35,000 sqm warehouse will be located at one of the exits of the D11 motorway.

Panattoni is extending a production campus for K-Flex in Uniejów. After having developed almost 60,000 sqm in four buildings, the developer is now to deliver a further 6,500 sqm. The leading producer of thermal and acoustic insulation materials will already be using a 15 m high storage facility in March 2022. This will allow K-Flex to service the growing needs of its construction clients from Europe, Asia and the USA. Both companies are now planning further stages to the extension of the complex in Uniejów.

Panattoni is kicking off its first investments in Hungary. On the plot purchased in Herceghalom, 30 km from the centre of Budapest, Panattoni Park Budapest West will be built with a total space of 75,500 sqm. The developer has also acquired land for City Logistics Budapest I in Törökbálint, halfway between Herceghalom and the Hungarian capital. Both investments will encompass jointly up to 100,000 sqm.

The multimodal complex next to Brno Airport, jointly developed by Brno Airport, belonging to the Accolade Group, and developer Panattoni, is now fully leased. Tenants such as Coca Cola, DHL or Zásilkovna are now joined by major companies s Erba Lachema from the Erba Group, Noviko and Reda.
