The development company 7R Logistic from Krakow is currently executing a project for MAN Truck&Bus Polska. These are two new office and service facilities for MAN and Neoplan commercial vehicles, located near Radzymin and Krakow.
The investor, 7R Logistic SA, was selected by MAN Truck&Bus Center after presenting the most favorable location and lease offer for the new MAN Truck and Bus Service and Office Centers in the northern part of Warsaw and the Krakow area. Both 7R Logistic locations are situated in the immediate vicinity of major transport arteries, i.e., the S8 expressway and the S7 expressway (northern part of the Krakow bypass), with excellent exposure and connectivity.
The investor began construction of the industrial and office facility near Radzymin in June of this year. In June, a ceremonial laying of the cornerstone for the new MAN investment also took place, attended by Piotr Stański, Operations Director at MAN Truck&Bus Polska, Tomasz Lubowiecki, President, and Ryszard Gretkowski, Vice President of 7R Logistic SA, along with representatives of local authorities and institutions such as the German Embassy. The planned completion date for the investment in Radzymin is December 2012. 7R Logistic is both the developer of the investment and the lessor and manager of the facility.
– Currently, there are already 6 such Centers operating in our country: in Warsaw, Poznań, Czeladź, Gdańsk, Wrocław, and Białystok. Now it is the turn for a location on the right bank of the Vistula – says Piotr Stański. – The S8 route is one of the most important transport routes connecting the West with the East. We are aware of how many users of MAN vehicles travel this route, and we are convinced that this new investment will facilitate all their transport tasks.
The total value of the investment is 11 million PLN. It is worth emphasizing that MAN is consistently implementing its strategy of developing its service network in our country. Between 2009 and 2012 alone, MAN invested over 10 million euros in its service network. The second investment in Krakow will begin in September of this year, with a planned completion date of April 2013. The facilities will be accompanied by the necessary transport infrastructure (including parking lots and maneuvering areas), technical infrastructure, and site development elements, including small architecture elements: fences, entrance gates, advertising pylons, and flagpoles.
The new facilities will house not only MAN service stations but also sales offices for new and used MAN trucks and Neoplan buses. Each of them will feature specialized workshop halls designed for vehicle maintenance with six repair bays for trucks, a professional diagnostic line, and a modern office section.
