Logistics company HAVI has taken over space at Panattoni Business Park Kladno, becoming the first tenant in the industrial scheme developed on the former Poldi Kladno site.
HAVI will occupy approximately 10,000 sq m in the project, where it will operate a facility focused on the storage and distribution of chilled and frozen goods. The move expands the company’s logistics capacity in the region and supports its distribution network.
“This new distribution center represents a significant milestone in HAVI’s continued development and the strengthening of our logistics network throughout the region,” says František Houška.
The development is being delivered by Panattoni, with investment from RSJ Group. The site is being redeveloped as a logistics and manufacturing park, with two planned buildings totalling around 88,500 sq m.
HAVI has leased space in Hall B, which will provide approximately 32,900 sq m in total. The building is designed to meet modern environmental and technical standards and is targeting a BREEAM New Construction rating at the Excellent level. The design includes energy management systems, heat recovery and rainwater reuse, as well as rooftop photovoltaic panels.
“HAVI’s decision to locate its logistics operations at Panattoni Business Park Kladno confirms our ability to deliver tailored industrial space,” says Jan Andrejco.
The project represents a redevelopment of a former industrial brownfield site, with elements of the original structures reused during construction. A second building, Hall A, with a planned area of approximately 55,600 sq m, is scheduled for future development.
“Handing over the keys to our first tenant marks an important step in the redevelopment of the former Poldi Kladno site,” says Marcel Kolesár.
The site is located around 30 km from Prague, with access to major road connections including the D5, D6 and D7 motorways. Rail access is also available nearby, with further infrastructure improvements planned in the area.
The development forms part of a broader trend of industrial regeneration, where former manufacturing sites are being repurposed for logistics and modern production uses.
