Panattoni Sells Automated Auchan Distribution Facility Near Warsaw to CORUM XL

6 May 2026

Panattoni has completed the sale of an automated e-grocery distribution centre near Warsaw leased to Auchan. The buyer is CORUM XL, a fund managed by CORUM Asset Management.

The build-to-suit logistics facility is located in Wilcza Góra near Warsaw and provides approximately 18,300 sqm of space. The property serves as Auchan’s national hub for online grocery operations in Poland and is leased under a 15-year agreement.

The acquisition price totalled €30.2 million.

The facility operates using the Ocado Smart Platform, an automation system used in grocery logistics operations. The building includes robotics systems, multiple temperature-controlled zones and infrastructure designed to support automated distribution processes.

“The logistics sector is entering a new phase. It is driven by automation, e-commerce, and supply chain resilience,” said Marek Dobrzycki, Partner at Panattoni.

“Poland remains one of the key markets in Europe, characterised by strong occupier demand and growing investor confidence. Projects such as this one – highly specialised, technology-driven, and secured by long-term leases – are exactly what the market is looking for today,” he added.

According to Panattoni, the distribution centre supports the processing of a large volume of grocery orders and provides ambient, chilled and frozen storage areas.

The scheme is located within Warsaw’s logistics corridor with access to major transport infrastructure and a large regional consumer base, supporting both last-mile and national distribution operations.

“The sale of the Auchan BTS asset confirms that investors are increasingly focusing on highly specialised, technology-driven logistics properties that combine long leases with strong tenant covenants,” said Michał Stanisławski, Co-Head of Capital Markets Poland at Panattoni.

“Such assets offer resilience and long-term value in a market that is entering a new phase of growth,” he added.

Panattoni said investor demand continues to focus on logistics assets connected to e-commerce, automation and supply chain operations across the European market.
