7R has laid the cornerstone for 7R Hub Nowa Huta, a major new logistics and technology hub in Kraków. The development will provide approximately 230,000 sqm of modern technical and production space, built to contemporary standards with a strong focus on low-emission and energy-efficient solutions. Demand for the project has already proven strong, with lease agreements for tens of thousands of square metres secured before construction even began.
The cornerstone-laying ceremony for the logistics and technology complex took place in Kraków. This symbolic act was performed by Aleksander Miszalski, Mayor of Kraków; Wojciech Warian, CEO of Kraków Nowa Huta Przyszłości S.A.; and Andrzej Wroński, CEO of 7R, together with Tomasz Lubowiecki, the company’s founder.
Aleksander Miszalski, Mayor of Kraków, said: “7R Hub Nowa Huta is a project that significantly strengthens the economic potential of Kraków’s eastern districts. Areas included in the strategic project ‘Kraków – Nowa Huta Przyszłości’ are consistently transforming into a hub of modern industrial and technological activity, and this development is a key element of that process. It demonstrates that urban growth can effectively combine the attraction of modern investments with the revitalisation and reuse of post-industrial land. As a result, Kraków is reinforcing its position as an attractive location not only for the services and IT sectors, but also for advanced logistics and industry. It is equally important that this project is being delivered in partnership with entities responsible for the development of this area. Such investments create long-term value – for the city’s economy, its spatial structure and the labour market.”
Wojciech Warian, CEO of Kraków Nowa Huta Przyszłości S.A., added: “Today’s event marks a significant milestone in restoring post-industrial areas of Nowa Huta to residents and businesses. The immediate proximity of 7R Hub Nowa Huta and the ‘Nowa Huta Przyszłości’ Economic Activity Zone creates tangible conditions for building a cohesive economic ecosystem, the first effects of which will be visible in the near future. It is also the moment when the results of our company’s consistent efforts over recent years—spanning design, infrastructure and land preparation—are becoming reality. We are confident that 7R’s project will act as a catalyst for further dynamic growth in this area, triggering a snowball effect and contributing to the delivery of additional projects in the years ahead.”
7R Hub Nowa Huta is being developed within the Ruszcza Logistics and Industrial Centre, as part of the ‘Kraków – Nowa Huta of the Future’ project, a location aspiring to become a new address for innovative industry in Kraków. Situated in the heart of the Nowa Huta district of Kraków, close to national road 79 and the planned S7 expressway junction, the park offers excellent connectivity and convenient access to the Kraków city centre. Its location, combined with access to a skilled workforce, makes it an attractive choice for technology companies, manufacturers, and logistics operators alike.
Andrzej Wroński, CEO of 7R, commented: “7R Hub Nowa Huta is the largest project in our portfolio and a perfect reflection of 7R’s approach to delivering modern commercial assets. Today, a warehouse is far more than just space – it is a place where business grows, an entire ecosystem. In our view, a modern warehouse is a tool that supports operational efficiency. This is exactly what 7R Hub Nowa Huta will be. We are pleased that our vision has been so well received by the market, as evidenced by the leasing process.”
