A new retail park will be built in the region of Olkusz in Poland. The project will be implemented as part of a joint venture between BOIG and the BIG Group. On the area purchased, there will be a place for quick and convenient shopping with varied commercial offers that customers need. Currently, the necessary arrangements to start construction are underway.
“Olkusz is a region inhabited by nearly 50,000 people and its commercial potential has not yet been fully exploited. Our goal is to create a facility with a comprehensive commercial offer, which will be created by stores of well-known brands from various industries, allowing you to do shopping quickly and conveniently. Among them, there will be both food operator and non-food discount stores, fashion stores and service outlets. It will be a modern facility with a convenient parking lot, which will become the main shopping destination for the inhabitants of not only Olkusz but also the entire region,” said Wojciech Cieślak, president of BOIG.
An unquestionable advantage of the facility will be its location right next to the city centre, near numerous housing estates and on the national road 94, which is an alternative for vehicles travelling between the Silesian agglomeration and Krakow and its surroundings. Thanks to this location, the retail park will be within the range of nearly 120,000 people in the city and the entire Olkusz district.
The investment is being developed in cooperation with a leading Israeli developer and manager of commercial real estate. “Currently, the BiG Group is implementing and managing 139 projects around the world, including 56 shopping centres and galleries in Israel, the United States, Serbia, Montenegro and France. The facility in Olkusz will be our next investment in Poland – a market where we are just beginning our expansion. We highly value the potential of this location and we hope that the joint venture with BOIG will become an attractive, desirable space for representatives of retail chains and will bring many benefits to the local residents,” said Eran Levy, CEO of BiG in Poland.
The BOIG group is responsible for the commercialization and implementation of the facility. The retail facility is to be ready in 2025.
