Stokado has opened a new self-storage facility in Kraków, expanding its presence in one of Poland’s largest urban markets. The development at Nowohucka Street is the company’s second asset in the city and forms part of its ongoing nationwide expansion strategy.
The facility provides more than 3,200 sqm of net leasable area across five floors and includes over 600 storage units. The building has been designed specifically for self-storage operations and incorporates reception and staff areas, technical facilities and access to all floors via two freight lifts.
Located in a mixed residential and commercial area of Kraków, the property is intended to serve both private individuals and business customers. The company said the location aligns with its strategy of developing facilities in densely populated urban areas with strong accessibility and visibility.
Redefine Properties, Griffin Capital Partners and the company’s founders jointly own the platform.
Pieter Prinsloo, Chief Executive Officer at Redefine Europe BV, said the Polish self-storage market continues to offer growth potential compared with more mature Western European markets.
Marcin Rękawiczny, Vice President Investments at Griffin Capital Partners, said the opening marks the third new Stokado location delivered within the past eight months.
The building includes several automated and digital access systems, including app-based entry, individual access codes, automatic unit locks and 24-hour CCTV monitoring. Customers are able to access the facility at all times.
The project has also been developed with sustainability measures including photovoltaic panels, a heat pump, a ground heat exchanger, LED lighting and a rainwater retention system. The building has been prepared to meet BREEAM certification requirements.
According to the company, the Kraków facility forms part of a broader strategy to expand Stokado’s presence in Poland’s major cities and strengthen its position within the self-storage sector.
