OMEGA PILZNO GROWS IN TRICITY AND RELOCATES ITS WAREHOUSE TO PANATTONI’S NEW LOGISTICS PARK
Omega Pilzno is expanding and relocating its Tricity warehouse through a lease of more than 14,000 sq m of warehouse space in Panattoni Park Tricity East III, whose construction commenced in early May. The tenant was advised in the transaction by real estate advisory firm Savills.
Founded in 1992, Omega Pilzno is a Polish logistics, transport and forwarding services provider. It has approximately 1,000 staff, five logistics warehouses and a fleet of nearly 700 vehicles. The lease signed in Panattoni Park Tricity East III will bring the total warehouse stock of Omega Pilzno across Poland to almost 120,000 sq m.
“We decided to expand our warehouse facilities in the Tricity region with the ambition to develop cooperation with our current clients and secure new mandates for logistics services. On account of its location, in our new warehouse we will provide customs warehouse services, maritime freight transloading and distribution of goods to our clients. We want to thank Savills for finding the right property for us and Panattoni for customising it to our needs,” says Adam Godawski, Vice-President of Omega Pilzno.
The client was advised during the site selection and negotiation of lease terms by Kamil Szymański and Maciej Gierak from Savills, a provider of advisory services for warehouse and industrial tenants.
“Tricity is becoming an increasingly attractive location for the logistics sector. At the end of the first quarter of 2020, it had approximately 671,500 sq m of modern warehouse and industrial space. Omega Pilzno signed a long lease that confirms their long-term plans for growth in Tricity, which reflects the growing significance of this region on Poland’s logistics map. Consequently, northern Poland is likely to attract soon more companies wanting to take advantage of this location’s strengths such as access to a seaport,” says Maciej Gierak, Business Development Manager, Industrial Agency, Savills.
Panattoni Gdańsk East III is a modern logistics park with an area of close to 33,000 sq m. It is located approximately 4 km from the seaport in Gdansk, providing easy access to the container terminal. It is also close to the Błonie interchange of the Sucharskiego Route, running from DCT Gdansk (Deepwater Container Terminal) to the southern ring road and the A1 motorway. Panattoni Park Tricity East III is scheduled for completion in Q1 2021.
“Omega Pilzno’s facility is a high-bay storage warehouse with certain modifications tailored to the tenant’s needs. We also provided Omega Pilzno with an option to expand in the future to accommodate the tenant’s rapid growth in the Tricity region. As a warehouse developer, we have also recognised the enormous potential of Pomerania and are planning to increase our warehouse stock in the region to around 470,000 sq m by the end of 2020,” says Martyna Sochaczewska, Leasing Manager, Panattoni.
