Refield has started development of Pasaż Łańcucki, an 11,200 sqm retail park in Łańcut in south-eastern Poland, with approximately 90% of the planned space already committed to tenants. The project is being delivered for local investor BISPOL INVEST and is scheduled to open in September 2027.
The development is taking shape on a 3.5-hectare site at Przemysłowa Street, alongside provincial road 877 and approximately 20 km from Rzeszów. The location beside a roundabout and an important regional road is intended to attract customers from both Łańcut and surrounding municipalities.
Lidl will anchor the grocery offer, with construction of its building already underway. Other retailers that have committed to the scheme include CCC, Shock Price, Rossmann, Action, Martes Sport, Sinsay, Tedi, Smyk and Hebe, together with FlyPark. According to Refield, agreements covering approximately 90% of the project have already been secured.
The high level of leasing well ahead of the planned opening provides another indication of retailer interest in smaller Polish cities where individual projects can draw customers from substantially larger surrounding areas. Łańcut has approximately 18,000 residents and the wider Łańcut county around 80,000, but the potential customer base extends considerably further.
Refield estimates that approximately 23,600 people live within a ten-minute drive of the development and 44,200 within 15 minutes. Expanding the journey time to 30 minutes increases the potential catchment to almost 370,000 people, bringing parts of the wider Rzeszów metropolitan area within reach of the property.
The development will provide more than 430 parking spaces and three separate vehicle entrances. This combination of road accessibility, parking capacity and a wider regional catchment reflects the development model that has supported the expansion of retail parks across smaller Polish markets.
“We wanted to create a place that would complement the city’s existing offer with a broad selection of recognisable brands and services responding to residents’ everyday needs,” said Fabian Eryk Barbarowicz, CEO of Refield. He added that the project’s advanced leasing level demonstrates tenant interest in the location, while its road connections allow it to serve customers beyond Łańcut itself.
Refield is responsible for delivering the project on a turnkey basis for BISPOL INVEST. Its mandate covers design and administrative procedures, leasing, coordination of construction and preparation of the property for opening. JT Konkurent has been appointed general contractor.
Pasaż Łańcucki also demonstrates why population figures within municipal boundaries provide only part of the investment case for regional retail property. For schemes positioned beside major roads, accessibility and the population within a realistic driving distance can be more important than the size of the host city itself.
With most of the space already committed and Lidl’s building under construction, the Łańcut development provides further evidence that Poland’s retail park pipeline continues to extend into smaller regional markets where developers can combine relatively limited local populations with considerably larger surrounding catchments.
