Scallier Launches Fully Let Retail Park Redevelopment in Bolesławiec

2 July 2026

Scallier is expanding its retail park portfolio with a new shopping centre in Bolesławiec, Poland, where it is redeveloping the site of a former Tesco supermarket into a modern retail destination scheduled to open in September 2026.

Located on Aleja Tysiąclecia within the city’s established retail district, the project is being developed in partnership with a private investor. The investment includes the comprehensive redevelopment of the existing property and surrounding infrastructure, transforming the former supermarket into a retail park offering approximately 5,000 sqm of gross leasable area (GLA). The scheme has also been designed with the potential to add a further 2,000 sqm in a future expansion.

According to Scallier, the project has already reached full occupancy ahead of completion. The final lease agreement has been signed with ShockPrice, an off-price retail concept operating within the Modivo platform, which will occupy approximately 1,700 sqm. Other confirmed tenants include ALDI, Action, Xtreme Fitness, Dr. Max Pharmacy, which is already operating on the site, and a Petroprix automated fuel station.

The retailer mix introduces several brands that are new to the Bolesławiec market, broadening the city’s retail offer and strengthening the project’s position within the local shopping landscape.

The retail park benefits from a strategic location adjacent to National Road 94 (DK94), one of the region’s main transport routes linking Bolesławiec with destinations including Legnica and Zgorzelec. The location is expected to attract customers from both the city, which has a population of more than 37,000, and the wider surrounding region.

Scallier is responsible for the project throughout the entire investment process, including development management, redevelopment works, leasing and long-term property management. The Bolesławiec investment reflects the company’s integrated development model, which it applies across both the Polish and Romanian markets.

The project also illustrates the continuing transformation of former large-format retail properties into modern convenience-focused retail parks. As consumer demand increasingly favours easily accessible shopping destinations anchored by grocery stores, discount retailers and essential services, the redevelopment of existing retail assets has become an important growth strategy across Poland’s regional retail market.

14 August 2026 Skanska JV secures USD 1.9 billion Los Angeles light rail contract 14 August 2026 Poland’s Job Market Edges Higher as Construction and Logistics Hiring StrengthensPoland’s recruitment market continued to improve in July, although the latest data suggest that the recovery remains gradual rather than signalling a broad acceleration in hiring. The Barometr Ofert Pracy, which tracks changes in the number of employment advertisements published online, increased to 261.5 points in July 2026, compared with 261.1 points in June and 258.5 points a year earlier. The indicator has been rising since April, but the strength of the monthly increases has progressively weakened. The survey is prepared by the Department of Economics and Finance at the University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszów together with the Bureau for Investments and Economic Cycles (BIEC). It is based on online job advertisements collected each month and adjusted to remove seasonal effects, providing an indication of changes in employers’ demand for new workers. BOP 8.2026.pdf The July results reveal increasingly different conditions between sectors. Recruitment in services is recovering, construction and engineering are showing stronger demand and logistics is improving, while vacancies for physical workers continue to decline. Construction recruitment reaches four-year high One of the clearest improvements is visible in construction. Among occupations requiring scientific or engineering qualifications, vacancies increased across almost every category in July, with IT the exception. Construction recorded a particularly strong result, with the number of advertised positions reaching its highest level in four years. BOP 8.2026.pdf Recruitment of engineers is also recovering. Following several years of declining vacancy numbers, demand has been gradually rebuilding and reached its highest level for two years following the latest increase. BOP 8.2026.pdf For the property and infrastructure sectors, the figures point towards stronger competition for technically qualified employees as construction activity requires additional engineering and specialist capacity. The improvement does not extend equally across the entire labour market. Vacancies for physical occupations declined again during July and have been following a clear downward trajectory since around the middle of 2024. BOP 8.2026.pdf This divergence suggests that employers’ recruitment requirements are becoming increasingly specialised rather than simply expanding across all categories of labour. Logistics hiring continues to recover Logistics is another area showing clearer signs of strengthening demand. The number of logistics vacancies has increased since April and reached its highest level since January 2024 in July. Recruitment in freight forwarding is also following an upward trend. BOP 8.2026.pdf The figures are relevant to Poland’s industrial and logistics property sector because employment demand provides another indication of operating activity among companies occupying warehouses, distribution centres and transport facilities. Services more broadly produced the largest increase in vacancies among the main occupational groups during July. Following more than a year of adjustment, recruitment in this part of the economy has been improving since the beginning of 2026, with July producing the highest number of advertisements since September 2024. BOP 8.2026.pdf Tourism recruitment also strengthened, reaching its highest level in more than 18 months, while education recorded a double-digit monthly percentage increase in vacancies, although demand in the sector remained substantially below the level recorded a year earlier. BOP 8.2026.pdf IT recovery remains fragile Technology presents a more complicated picture. Vacancies for both IT administration and programming declined in July, with the reduction somewhat greater among programmers. Nevertheless, the longer-term direction has improved modestly, with IT vacancies gradually increasing over approximately the past 18 months. BOP 8.2026.pdf The recovery remains far from complete. Demand for IT workers is still significantly below the levels recorded before the economic disruption associated with the pandemic, with the gap particularly pronounced for programmers. BOP 8.2026.pdf Meanwhile, within social-science and legal occupations, recruitment has been broadly stable since October 2025. July brought some improvement for call-centre employees, purchasing departments and lawyers, while vacancies declined for graphic designers, office workers and banking positions. BOP 8.2026.pdf Regional differences remain substantial The recovery is also uneven geographically. After seasonal employment was excluded, online vacancies increased in most Polish regions during July. The strongest monthly increases were recorded in Warmińsko-Mazurskie, Podkarpackie and Śląskie, while the largest decreases occurred in Wielkopolskie, Zachodniopomorskie and Dolnośląskie. BOP 8.2026.pdf At the same time, labour-market conditions are not improving across every measure. The seasonally adjusted registered unemployment rate increased by 0.1 percentage point in June to 6.1%, its highest level since May 2021, according to the report. BOP 8.2026.pdf The combination of slightly higher unemployment and gradually increasing vacancies points towards a labour market undergoing structural adjustment rather than a straightforward hiring boom. The report’s labour-market diagram on page three places July 2026 close to the boundary between improving qualifications and a stronger employment outlook, illustrating the relatively tentative nature of the current recovery. BOP 8.2026.pdf For Poland’s property sector, however, the composition of hiring may be more important than the headline movement in the index. Increasing demand for construction specialists, engineers, logistics workers and freight-forwarding employees coincides with sectors directly connected to development, infrastructure and industrial real estate. The July Barometr therefore points to a labour market moving forward slowly but becoming increasingly differentiated: employers are recruiting again in selected areas, while other occupations continue to face weaker demand. Construction and logistics currently stand out among the areas where that improvement is becoming most visible. 14 August 2026 NBI Analysis: Bucharest Strengthens Its Position in CEE 14 August 2026 How Transit-Oriented Development Has Shaped Japan’s Real Estate Success 14 August 2026 Croatia proposes 50% levy on exceptional 2026 corporate profit margins 14 August 2026 NEPI Rockcastle enters Spain with €252 million acquisition of MegaPark Barakaldo 14 August 2026 GN Group takes more than 30,000 sqm at Panattoni’s Kladno brownfield development
