An international e-commerce company has leased nearly 20,000 sqm at Panattoni Park Wałbrzych, adding another large occupier to the Lower Silesian logistics market and strengthening Wałbrzych’s position as an alternative distribution location outside the main Wrocław warehouse cluster.
The unnamed tenant will use the facility to support operations across European markets. The agreement represents another transaction between the company and Panattoni and expands the occupier’s presence in Lower Silesia.
Immediate access to completed warehouse capacity was an important factor behind the location decision. According to Panattoni, negotiations progressed from the initial enquiry to a signed lease within one week, with the premises made available to the tenant the following day.
The transaction demonstrates the potential advantage of ready-to-occupy logistics space at a time when e-commerce companies can require substantial capacity at relatively short notice. Existing buildings allow occupiers to establish or expand operations without waiting for a new development to pass through construction and commissioning.
Panattoni Park Wałbrzych comprises two warehouse buildings providing a combined 57,000 sqm. Following the latest lease, approximately 6,000 sqm remains available.
The property is located in the Szczawienko district close to national road No. 35 and within the Wałbrzych Special Economic Zone. Its position provides road connections towards the Czech border, giving occupiers access to distribution routes serving both Poland and neighbouring Central European markets.
That cross-border position is particularly relevant to Wałbrzych’s potential as a logistics location. While the Wrocław area remains Lower Silesia’s principal warehouse hub, secondary locations can compete for occupiers where available space, labour access and connections to neighbouring markets meet operational requirements.
The new tenant’s decision to manage European operations from Wałbrzych suggests that such locations can attract requirements extending beyond regional distribution. For developers and investors, this can broaden the potential occupier base for logistics properties outside Poland’s largest warehouse markets.
Panattoni says it has delivered close to 2.5 million sqm across Lower Silesia, making the region its second-largest market in Poland by completed space. The Wałbrzych property has been designed for a mixture of logistics, e-commerce and light manufacturing operations and holds BREEAM certification.
The latest transaction also leaves the majority of Panattoni Park Wałbrzych occupied, with the remaining available area representing roughly a tenth of the development.
As occupiers become increasingly selective about logistics costs and delivery times, the ability to provide substantial completed space can be as important as proximity to the largest distribution centres. The Wałbrzych lease shows how this combination of availability and cross-border connectivity can create opportunities for secondary logistics locations within Lower Silesia.
