Panattoni Europe has launched the construction of a warehouse facility for Selgros. The new 10,200 sqm build-to-own (BTO) investment is going up in Ożarów Mazowiecki. Completion is anticipated in Q3 2015.
In line with the business concept pursued by Selgros, the warehouse will take up 9,000 sqm, with a 1,500 sqm freezer warehouse and 800 sqm cold storage, while office space will take up 1,200 sqm. Project completion is planned for Q3 of 2015.
Build-to-own (BTO) project commissioned by the FMCG sector. Panattoni Europe has extensive experience in developing warehouse facilities commissioned by future owners. The company provides a comprehensive service – from finding the right site for development, through following all the legal and administrative procedures, to supervising construction, acceptance of the finished facility and delivery to the customer.
Robert Dobrzycki, Managing Partner of Panattoni Europe, commented: “Developments of this kind invariably provide an interesting challenge for us, enhanced by the profile of the business sector of the customer for whom the investment is to be developed. In this case, we are responsible for the comprehensive development of a warehouse facility dedicated to fast-moving consumer goods, which calls for some special solutions. In fact, we are building an advanced distribution centre which, due to the diversity of the goods stored, including fresh, frozen and even non-food products, and their temperature requirements, will feature warehouse space divided into sections with variable temperature, including cold store and freezer warehouse.”
The right location and accessibility of the transport network play a crucial role in the FMCG business. A strategic choice of location not only reduces the amount of time it takes to deliver products to the chain’s stores, but also helps reduce transport costs. That is why the facility for Selgros built in Ożarów enjoys one of the best locations in Poland. The centre will boast the proximity to the country’s capital and the major transport routes – it is right next to the national road 92, linking Rzepin with Poznań and Warsaw, and also not far from the European route E30.
