Shell, one of the world’s largest energy companies, has renewed its lease at the DOT Park office complex in Kraków. The newly signed agreement covers over 22,800 sqm of office space across three buildings (A, B, and C), making the transaction not only the largest office lease in Poland in H1 2025, but also the single largest office deal in the history of the Kraków market.
Shell has been present at DOT Park since 2015. The Kraków complex, owned by Golden Star Estate, houses Shell Business Operations (SBO), one of the largest international business centres in the region, employing over 5,000 people and supporting Shell’s global operations in finance, HR, IT, logistics, and procurement. The 22,800 sqm of modern office space at DOT Park will soon undergo refurbishment, as Shell plans to upgrade and tailor the space to meet the evolving needs of its employees. New EV charging stations as well as dedicated parking for electric scooters and bicycles will also be introduced on the campus.
“Extending our cooperation with Shell is not only a great commercial success, but also a strong confirmation that DOT Park meets the highest expectations of global tenants. We’ve consistently invested in the development and quality of our properties, focusing on modern solutions and workplace comfort. We’re delighted that Shell, one of our key partners, has decided to continue its presence at DOT Park on such a scale. This is the best recommendation we could ask for, and a powerful motivator to continue growing,” said Mariusz Breś, Vice President at Golden Star Estate.
Magdalena Ruta, Head of Asset Management at Golden Star Estate, commented: “Renegotiating 22,800 m2 with a major tenant like Shell, particularly in such a competitive market as Kraków, is a double win for us. It wouldn’t have been possible without a truly collaborative relationship with the tenant and the engagement of all the individuals who brought expertise, experience, and professionalism to this process from start to finish. I’d like to thank the entire Shell team, especially Ewa van der Nat-Gregorkiewicz and Joanna Gaworecka-Michnal, with whom it was a great pleasure to work.”
