The development of express roads has connected Poland with the logistics corridors of Western Europe. This greatly increased the attractiveness of the country, particularly those locations along the western border. But this is not the only advantage we can use today to attract manufacturing and distribution investors and gain a better position in the e-commerce sector as a whole. We have modern, high-class industrial and logistics space, some of it highly automated. We know how to take care of qualified staff and how to catch investors’ attention with attractive costs. The conditions created in the special economic zones to boost growth continue to be of importance too. And let us not forget that Poland is also a large and increasingly rich market. These are solid foundations for growth, even during the coronavirus crisis

If we look at the growing availability of logistics and industrial space and quality staff, Słubice is becoming an extremely attractive place to position and develop businesses from the logistics industry. We recently had the pleasure of advising M.W. Logistics, which has leased an additional 6 500 sqm of space to establish a state-of-the-art warehouse for its logistics operations
- adds Rober Pawłowski.
We took the decision to invest in an innovative robotics system involved in the handling of 75% of the goods stored by us. There were several reasons for our company to do that: flexibility currently required of logistics operators, the need to minimise costs and shorten delivery times, as well as the changes taking place in respect of the human factor, i.e. the currently observed decline in productivity and the aging population
Krzysztof Roszyk, Director of Operations at M.W. Logistics
We have been observing the progressive introduction of changes in logistics and its automation for many years, yet the rapid pace of these changes in the last year exceeded our wildest expectations. Due to the high technological advancement of Polish facilities, more and more investors decide to bring their operations to our country. As already mentioned, the less obvious locations are gaining in importance, and thanks to Poland’s central location in Europe, new industrial and logistics space is being developed along all its borders
