A&T GROUP has decided to open its first distribution centre in Poland. The customs warehouse with the controlled temperature required for medicines and foodstuffs will be located in the logistics park Gdansk – Kowale Distribution Centre. The tenant will occupy nearly 4,000 sqm of warehouse and office space, where it will develop a division related to the supply of medicines, medical devices, and dietary supplements to the CEE region.
A&T GROUP provides complete logistics services and road, sea, and air transportation for pharmaceutical companies that ship drugs and nutritional supplements to Ukraine. AXI IMMO was responsible for comprehensive consulting services for A&T GROUP.
Rafał Jełowicki, Consultant, Industrial & Logistics, AXI IMMO, says: “The client’s business, which is developing in the Tri-City, will be based on the distribution of various medical materials on the European continent, with a stronger emphasis on its middle-eastern part. Understanding this need and the specificity of the medical industry, we were looking for a module that would be equipped with a temperature-controlled and controlled section, as well as meet high criteria related to isolation.”
Katarzyna Głodowska, Consultant, Industrial & Logistics, AXI IMMO, says: “It’s another transaction that shows how important the Tri-City remains as a location on the warehousing map of Poland. One of its most important assets and lines of development cannot be overestimated, i.e., servicing customers with access to the Baltic Hub container terminal, DCT Gdansk. Despite this, Tri-City still wants to be competitive with other warehouse markets and remains open to all tenants interested in acquiring space for current and future projects, including reshoring and nearshoring ones.”
Jakub Jastrzębski, Consultant, Industrial & Logistics, AXI IMMO, points out: “The Tri-City warehouse market is characterized by high demand. The constant desire to develop customers who already run business operations in this area contributes to the rapid absorption of available space. To meet the expectations of A&T GROUP, and to consider the well-prospering companies in the medical sector in Poland for years, one of our proposals was to secure additional space for the growth of operations in advance. It is a safe solution that provides the tenant with great flexibility in the event of a lower supply.”
