Panattoni and Eika Asset Management have commenced the development of Panattoni Park Kraków West IV, a new logistics project in Skawina within the Kraków metropolitan area. The development will provide more than 46,000 sqm of warehouse and industrial space and is scheduled for completion in July 2027.
The project follows the acquisition of a nine-hectare site in Skawina by Eika Asset Management, while Panattoni will oversee the development process as part of the companies’ ongoing partnership. Construction is expected to begin during the summer of 2026.
The first tenant has already secured close to 17,000 sqm within the scheme. The company, a distributor of wood-based panels, will use the facility for warehousing and distribution operations serving both wholesale and retail customers. The lease also includes approximately 800 sqm of office and social space across two floors, with operations expected to commence in the third quarter of 2027.
According to Eika Asset Management, strong occupier interest prior to the start of construction reflects continued demand for modern logistics assets in Poland. The company views the project as part of its broader strategy of investing in warehouse and distribution properties across the country.
Panattoni highlighted the limited availability of development land in the Kraków region, noting that demand from logistics, manufacturing and e-commerce occupiers continues to support new projects in the market. The developer sees the launch of Panattoni Park Kraków West IV as a response to occupier demand for modern and operationally efficient warehouse facilities in southern Poland.
The development is located near National Road 44, the Skawina bypass, and close to the A4 motorway, providing access to domestic distribution networks as well as international transport routes towards southern Europe.
Panattoni Park Kraków West IV has been designed to accommodate tenants from the logistics, e-commerce, light manufacturing, automotive, technology and FMCG sectors. Flexible unit configurations will allow occupiers to adapt space according to operational requirements.
The project is targeting a BREEAM Excellent certification and will incorporate energy-efficient and sustainability-focused features. According to Eika Asset Management, occupiers are increasingly prioritising operational efficiency, energy performance and environmental standards when selecting warehouse facilities, contributing to stronger demand for modern logistics assets compared with older stock.
The development adds to the growing pipeline of logistics projects in southern Poland, where land constraints and sustained occupier activity continue to support new investment despite a more selective market environment.
