BIG Poland has completed the rebranding of a recently acquired retail park in Grodzisk Mazowiecki, extending its presence in the Warsaw metropolitan area as the investor continues to expand its Polish portfolio.
The former Grodzisk Sfera Park is now operating as BIG Grodzisk Mazowiecki following its acquisition by BIG Poland only weeks ago. The property becomes the company’s second retail park in the Mazowieckie voivodeship after BIG Łubna and gives the group a presence in the western part of the Warsaw metropolitan area.
The retail park provides approximately 11,000 sqm of gross lettable area and contains 19 shops and service units. The scheme is fully occupied, with tenants including Biedronka, Sinsay, New Yorker, JYSK, RTV Euro AGD, Rossmann, Pepco, Dealz, KiK, TEDi, Martes Sport, Maxi Zoo, Woolworth, Świat Książki and Kodano Optyk, alongside food and beverage operators.
Rather than representing additional retail development, the Grodzisk transaction illustrates BIG’s use of acquisitions to increase its Polish presence and bring established properties into its operating platform. The rebranding gives the existing scheme a new identity while allowing the investor to apply its own asset-management strategy to an already trading and fully leased property.
“Opening BIG Grodzisk Mazowiecki is another important step in strengthening our presence in the Mazowieckie voivodeship and the wider Warsaw metropolitan area,” said Eran Levy, CEO of BIG Poland. He described Grodzisk Mazowiecki as a growing market with long-term potential and said the company intends to develop further activities aimed at connecting the property with its local catchment.
BIG will formally introduce the rebranded property to customers on 29 August with a public event running between 14:00 and 20:00. The programme includes family entertainment, children’s activities, live performances and food, with admission to the attractions free of charge.
The location provides a strategic element to the acquisition. Grodzisk Mazowiecki is approximately 30 km from central Warsaw, while the retail park is positioned close to the town centre and has connections to the city ring road, A2 motorway and DK50 national road. The property provides 350 parking spaces.
According to BIG, the scheme serves more than 100,000 residents across Grodzisk Mazowiecki, the surrounding county and neighbouring municipalities. This combination of a growing suburban market, road accessibility and an established tenant base gives the property characteristics increasingly sought in Poland’s retail-park investment market.
The acquisition also fits into a much broader expansion of BIG’s Polish platform. The company has been operating in Poland since 2022 and now owns 13 retail parks with combined GLA approaching 258,000 sqm. Its portfolio extends across markets including Gorzów Wielkopolski, Olsztyn, Koszalin, Kielce, Włocławek, Lubin, Suwałki and Ostróda, as well as its two properties in Mazowieckie.
Further growth is planned through developments in Piła, Olkusz, Konstantynów Łódzki and Bolesławiec, giving BIG a combination of acquired operating properties and new projects through which to increase its exposure to the Polish retail market.
The Grodzisk Mazowiecki rebranding therefore represents more than a change of name. It shows how retail-park investors can expand through the acquisition of established, income-producing properties and subsequently integrate them into larger operating platforms.
For Poland’s retail property market, this approach is becoming an important complement to new development. Fully occupied schemes serving growing regional and metropolitan catchments can provide investors with immediate income while still offering opportunities for active management, repositioning and longer-term value creation.
