General contractor Harden Construction has begun construction of a logistics center in Sosnowiec for the Raben Group, one of the largest logistics companies in Europe. The modern cross-dock facility is being built next to the S1 expressway. The investment includes the reclamation of post-industrial land and the use of environmentally friendly technologies.
Harden Construction Poland has officially started the implementation of the investment for Raben Real Estate, a company of the Raben Group, in Sosnowiec on Inwestycyjna Street. The project is located in the immediate vicinity of the S1 expressway junction.
Construction work started in May 2026, and its completion is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027, in accordance with the schedule. The investment includes the construction of a cross-dock warehouse with a total building area of nearly 12,700 m². Within the facility, the warehouse area will occupy 11,300 m², while the office and social facilities will be laid out over an area of 1,624 m². This is the second project by Harden Construction in cooperation with the Raben Group. The previous facility with an area of 43,400 m² was built in Poznań in 2024.
An important element of the investment is the expansion of the local transport system, including the construction of a new intersection with Inwestycyjna Street. The internal infrastructure layout has been designed for intensive transport traffic and includes over 35,000 m² of paved areas made of asphalt and cement concrete. 137 parking spaces and a bicycle shelter will be built on the site, and 103 loading docks will ensure efficient handling of goods. A significant technical aspect of the investment is the specific nature of the soil at this location.
We are pleased with our renewed cooperation with the Raben Group. Another joint project gives us great satisfaction and proves the effectiveness of our strategy. The implementation in Sosnowiec required us to take into account the fact that the investment is being built on the site of a former post-mining spoil tip. To ensure the stability of the structure and the required load-bearing parameters, we decided together with the Investor to place the facility on a foundation reinforced with concrete displacement columns and to carry out a partial soil replacement.
– explains Paweł Fiuczek, Managing Director at Harden Construction.
The project is being implemented in accordance with the guidelines of the EU taxonomy and sustainable building standards. The facility will be equipped with a photovoltaic installation, and the site development plan provides for the creation of nearly 11,000 m² of biologically active area. About 100 people will work on the construction site.
