BBK S.A., owner of the home&you brand, the largest Polish chain of interior design shops, will open a new office in the Alpha building, the first stage of the Airport City Gdańsk complex. The company signed a lease for more than 3,600 sqm of space in the development owned by Airport City Gdańsk. The transaction was facilitated by JLL Polska, the exclusive agent representing the office building.
Currently, BBK S.A.’s head office is located in Kowale near Gdansk, while the company’s second head office and distribution centre are located in Gdansk. As of May 2024, the BBK S.A. teams, currently working in two different locations, will be merged under one head office, which will be the modern Alpha office building within the Airport City Gdańsk complex.
“Merging the Teams, currently working in two different locations in Gdansk, is a very important step in the development of our company. For a long time, we had been looking for a new office space that would be functional and fully adapted to our needs. In addition to the highest standard of finish, the environmentally friendly solutions incorporated in the design of Alpha were also an important aspect in the selection of the premises. The excellent location of the office building and the plans for a green leisure area around the building and a green roof terrace for our employees to use are additional advantages. I am delighted that it is Alpha that will become BBK’s new headquarters. I believe that in this modern and beautiful space, we will grow, inspire each other and achieve success,” says Magdalena Barańska, Vice-President of the Management Board BBK S.A
“We are delighted that such a major tenant appreciates this unique investment and we believe that it will prove successful as a location for their new office. Alpha’s excellent location, near the Lech Wałęsa Airport in Gdańsk, makes it an extremely attractive location for a wide range of tenants. We are very pleased to have the opportunity to exclusively represent this office building,” says Beata Lewandowska, Senior Consultant, Leasing, JLL
“The complex has several distinctive features that are appreciated in the market, including the fact that it has been built in compliance with the environmentally friendly standards. The Alpha building has already been recognised with a LEED Gold certification, which demonstrates the highest standards maintained to create an environmentally friendly building. We know that this type of certification is valued by many tenants, including BBK,” says Michał Dargacz, Director, Airport City Gdańsk.
Alpha was completed in February 2022. The development offers a total of 8,500 sqm of office space located on 5 floors, including units dedicated to service functions on the ground floor. The building is distinguished by a modern, fully glazed façade and a green roof terrace exclusively for tenants’ use. The green leisure space around the complex will soon be joined by a leisure zone.
