Goodman has signed three lease contracts for a total of 50,300 sqm of warehouse space at Goodman Toruń Logistics Centre. One new customer, Mueller Fabryka Świec, has leased a 15,900 sqm warehouse, while two existing customers, Nissin Logistics and FM Bravo, have signed lease extensions resulting in 100 percent occupancy at the logistics centre.
Mueller Fabryka Świec is part of Gebr. Müller Kerzenfabrik, one of Europe’s largest and oldest candle-makers. Located less than 50km from one of its production facilities, the new warehouse will be used by Mueller Fabryka Świec to store finished products and intermediates. Considering the specific nature of the products being stored, Goodman and Mueller have installed special safety solutions, including additional smoke vents, and in-rack sprinkler installation. Mueller Fabryka Świec was represented in the lease transaction by brokerage firm JLL.
“We are pleased that Goodman will be a partner in the continued development of our business. Our candles are sold to domestic and international stores, retail chains and wholesalers. The new warehouse space at Goodman Toruń Logistics Centre, which is close to our facility in Grudziądz, will support more balanced use of our production capacity and reduce the impact of seasonality on our production process. We hope it will also improve our customer service and competitiveness,” said Robert Spychała, Vice-President of Mueller Fabryka Świec.
Aside from the transaction with Mueller Fabryka Świec, Goodman has extended contracts with existing customers at two remaining buildings within Goodman Toruń Logistics Centre. Logistics operator Nissin Logistics Poland increased their total lease area to 25,700 sqm, making it the third largest leasing transactionon the Polish market in the first quarter of 2015. Additionally, furniture maker FM Bravo has taken up 8,700 sqm. The centre’s other customer is the logistics operator Yusen Logistics, occupying 15,000 sqm.
“Goodman Toruń Logistics Centre is strategically located to offer customers access to key infrastructure for distribution across Poland as well as easy access to the port of Gdansk for international trade and transport,” explained Błażej Ciesielczak, Goodman Regional Director for Central and Eastern Europe.
The 65,000 sqm Goodman Toruń Logistics Centre is located at Crystal Park in the Pomeranian Special Economic Zone in the town of Łysomice near Toruń.
