Newgate Investment (NGI) has finalised the acquisition of the Fabryka Park retail park, located in Katowice, from TDJ Estate. The property offers over 8,800 sqm of GLA. This is another step in expanding Newgate’s portfolio. In total, NGI’s Polish portfolio now comprises assets with a total GLA significantly exceeding 200,000 sqm.
Fabryka Park is home to tenants including Action, TEDi, Jysk, Dealz, Maxi Zoo, Rossmann, Pepco, Media Expert, and Woolworth, offering a comprehensive range of products and services that meet the everyday needs of residents. Along with the acquisition of Fabryka Park, Newgate has also secured the purchase of the retail park’s ongoing extension (2,800 sqm GLA) — with nearly half of the new space to be occupied by Medicover Medical Centre.
Fabryka Park Katowice is another step in expanding NGI’s portfolio, which in recent months has been joined by, among others:
- Comfy Park Bielik in Bielsko-Biała (over 17,000 sqm GLA),
- a retail park in Piła (over 15,000 sqm GLA),
- a retail park currently under development in Bydgoszcz (16,000 sqm GLA), scheduled to open in Q1 2026.
The Bydgoszcz project marks Newgate Investment’s first forward funding transaction in Poland. By the end of 2025, the total value of NGI’s Polish retail real estate portfolio will significantly exceed €320 million.
“We are consistently expanding our portfolio, focusing on retail assets with a dominant position in their local markets or forming part of the main shopping destinations in cities. Thanks to their broad offering, these properties fully meet the needs of local communities by providing essential goods and services. Recently, we have signed a preliminary agreement for another large-format retail park in Silesia. At the same time, we are negotiating the acquisition of several properties planned for purchase in 2026. We still have room to complete several transactions by the end of this year, so the coming months promise to be particularly busy,” commented Krystian Modrzejewski, Chief Investment Officer at Newgate Investment.
“By the end of this year, we still can close several more deals, so the months ahead will be exceptionally active. Over the next 3–4 years, we aim to increase the value of our portfolio to as much as one billion euros. We see enormous potential in Poland to scale up our operations and deliver returns for investors, both through further acquisitions and proactive management of our existing properties,” he added.
The occupancy rate of NGI’s Polish portfolio stands at 99.7 percent.
“High occupancy is the result of well-judged investment decisions and strong demand from retail chains for space in attractive locations. At present, around 600,000 sqm of new retail space is under construction in Poland, of which approximately 400,000 sqm is accounted for by retail parks. In many regions of the country, there is still a shortage of modern retail facilities, so the market is far from saturated — and we intend to take advantage of that,” said Modrzejewski.
In the acquisition of Fabryka Park Katowice, Newgate Investment was represented by the law firm KNP. The technical advisor was BatiPlus, and the agent was REALM.
