Prologis, Inc. – owner, operator and developer of distribution facilities – has signed a new lease agreement with ROHLIG SUUS Logistics. The agreement covers 25,500 square meters at Prologis Park Janki.
ROHLIG SUUS Logistics has leased the entire newly constructed Building 3, with 18,500 square meters of warehouse and office space, as well as an additional 7,000 square meters by which the warehouse will be expanded. This space will be tailored to the operator’s individual needs and will become a cross-dock terminal adapted for groupage handling. The entire facility, with a total area of 25,500 square meters, will be the largest facility of its kind in such close proximity to Warsaw occupied by a logistics operator providing comprehensive services.
This location is particularly advantageous in the context of their own groupage distribution system, enabling 24-hour delivery throughout the country. In accordance with the client’s request, eco-friendly solutions are also planned for the facility, including those that significantly reduce electricity consumption.
– We decided to complete the third building in Janki due to the decreasing vacancy rate for warehouse space in southern Warsaw – said Kamila Pruk, Leasing Manager for Prologis in Poland – The park’s excellent location near major European and national transport routes, combined with our experience and flexible approach, created an attractive offer for our new client. We wish ROHLIG SUUS Logistics every success in their new distribution center and look forward to further fruitful cooperation.
– The scale, pace of development, and quality of ROHLIG SUUS Logistics’ investments are unprecedented in the industry. The agreement with Prologis is our fourth major real estate change this year – we have already opened two build-to-suit logistics complexes in Czeladź and Poznań, and moved our branch in Łódź to a larger and modern A+ class facility. This will significantly increase our operational capabilities and influence the further development of our services – said Daniel Franke, Board Member responsible for contract logistics, domestic distribution, and IT solutions at ROHLIG SUUS Logistics.
– The decision to continue the construction of the first 100% speculative building in Poland after 2009 also stemmed from our extensive market knowledge and the company’s strong financial position – added Bartosz Mierzwiak, Vice President & Market Officer for Prologis in Poland – Our position as a leader in the warehouse space market allowed us to anticipate the client’s needs and lease this modern building.
