Panattoni has leased 10,500 sqm to Well Pack in the City Logistics Łódź II warehouse park. The space will be used by the logistics operator for the machine washing and disinfection of reusable food containers for supermarket chains. The tenant will move into its new premises in July, from where it will carry out its main operations.


City Logistics Łódź II has been built according to the requirements of BREEAM certification at the ‘Very Good’ level and features a wide range of energy-saving and sustainability solutions. The lease was mediated by consultancy Axi Immo.

Facilities designed for ‘last-mile delivery’ continue to attract tenants, and due to their locations, they have become strategic centres for companies representing a variety of industries. The attractiveness of city logistics has now been recognised by Well Pack, which has leased 10,500 sqm in City Logistic Łódź II. For the last 30 years, the logistics operator has specialised in machine washing reusable packaging and pallets. Each year the company cleans more than 300 million items of different types of packaging across eight European markets. At City Logistics Łódź II the company will provide fruit and vegetable container cleaning services for leading supermarket chains. The washing zone will take up as much as 3,500 sqm of the total 10,500 sqm leased, with the entire process being fully automated through the use of machines and conveyors. Additionally, the company will also use the space to store the containers and will organise their transport. Well Pack will be moving into its new premises in July. The company has chosen this location because of the growth potential it offers as well as to facilitate its plans to increase its workforce.

As Kamil Kwiatkowski, the Senior Leasing Manager of Panattoni says: “Well Pack’s lease is yet another example of the flexibility of city logistics. On the one hand, it gives companies options such as renting small units to leasing areas of over 10,000 sqm; while on the other, the space can be adapted for almost any kind of operations. This time we have had to adapt it for modern industrial cleaning processes, and this has been 100 pct achieved. As a result of Well Pack’s choice of the park, City Logistics Łódź II is the latest fully leased city logistics facility in Panattoni’s portfolio.”

City Logistics Łódź II is now almost fully leased. It houses food industry companies that process food products both for people and animals, as well as logistics and transport firms. The facility has the major advantage of its location in the eastern part of Łódź. The A1 motorway, which links the southern and the northern part of Poland, is only 5 km from the park, while the A2 motorway, which connects the main logistics hubs in Central Europe, including Berlin, Poznań and Warsaw, is 27 km away. City Logistics Łódź II, just like other city logistics facilities, is ideal for smaller companies that operate locally, due to offering smaller modules and being located only 8 km from the city centre, which makes it convenient for employees to travel in by public transport.
