Stokado, the second-largest operator on the Polish self-storage market, has begun construction on two new development projects in Wrocław and Warsaw. These initiatives represent the company’s fourth and fifth ground-up developments since its acquisition by Redefine Properties and Griffin Capital Partners in 2023, further strengthening its position in Poland’s rapidly expanding self-storage sector.
The Wrocław development, located on Awicenny Street in the city’s southwest, will add over 5,000 sqm of NLA to Stokado’s growing portfolio. As the company’s sixth facility in the Wrocław metropolitan area, it is designed to meet the rising demand for secure and accessible storage in fast-developing residential zones such as Bielany Wrocławskie, Oporów, Klecina, Krzyki, Ołtaszyn, and Grabiszyn. The site’s location – well-connected and close to both residential and retail infrastructure – makes it ideal for a next-generation self-storage facility. Construction is being led by general contractor SAVI, with completion expected in autumn 2026.
Meanwhile, in Warsaw, construction is now underway on a new 5,500 sqm NLA facility on Radzymińska Street. Situated near the M1 shopping centre and surrounded by the densely populated districts of Bródno and Targówek, the project marks a strategic step in Stokado’s expansion in the capital city. Standing approx. 20 meters tall – equivalent to six storeys – the Warsaw facility will be one of the tallest self-storage buildings in Poland. The project is being delivered by general contractor MBT, with handover planned for autumn 2026.
Pieter Prinsloo, Chief Executive Officer at Redefine Europe BV, says: “We are pleased to see our development pipeline in Poland progressing at pace. Since acquiring Stokado, one of our core objectives has been to accelerate the delivery of high-quality, environmentally responsible assets in key urban locations. These new projects in Wrocław and Warsaw exemplify our long-term vision: to build a resilient, future-ready portfolio that meets the evolving needs of both our customers and the communities we serve.”
Marcin Rękawiczny, Vice President Investments at Griffin Capital Partners, adds: “Wrocław holds a special place in Stokado’s history, and we are proud to continue investing in the city where the brand was born. At the same time, Warsaw remains a strategic priority for us. With our Bemowo facility nearing completion, we are actively pursuing further development opportunities in the capital to support our long-term growth ambitions. These new projects reflect our confidence in the Polish market and our commitment to delivering best-in-class self-storage infrastructure.”
Both new buildings have been designed and will be constructed to achieve a Very Good rating under full BREEAM certification.
Stokado, co-owned by Redefine Properties, Griffin Capital Partners, and founders Dawid and Klaudiusz Bechcicki, is Poland’s second-largest self-storage operator. The company manages over 32,000 sqm of NLA across 19 locations, with a network spanning Warsaw, Kraków, Wrocław, Poznań, Bydgoszcz, and other major cities.
