Green Caffè Nero Relocates Warsaw Office to Saski Crescent

Green Caffè Nero has moved its Warsaw office to the Saski Crescent building in the city centre. The new office covers approximately 960 sq m and was designed to reflect the company’s current operational needs. Colliers supported the tenant throughout the process, including location selection, lease negotiations, workplace analysis, architectural design and fit-out.

According to Colliers, its advisory team assisted Green Caffè Nero in choosing the new premises and negotiating lease terms, while the Colliers Define unit conducted employee needs assessments and prepared the office concept and implementation.

Dorota Pomacho-Pątkiewicz, CEO of Green Caffè Nero, said: “The last few months have been a time of milestones for us. We have opened cafés in the Tri-City, launched the production of our food in a new factory and are approaching 100 locations. The natural next step was therefore to change our office – to one that will allow us to continue to grow dynamically without slowing down. We have managed to create a space that truly reflects our way of thinking about work. We have a place where we can focus and work effectively, but also meet over coffee, exchange ideas and simply feel good. I am proud that we have managed to combine comfort at work with an atmosphere that inspires and brings our employees closer together.”

Representatives of Colliers’ Office Space Department, Paweł Proński and Marcin Łachmański, noted that the relocation provided an opportunity to increase office area and adapt the workplace to team requirements, adding that the project focused on supporting collaboration and informal interaction.

Dawid Wątorski, Senior Leasing Manager at CA Immo in Poland, commented on the building’s positioning: “The boutique character of the Saski Crescent building, the modern, hotel-style lobby and other common areas perfectly complement the concept of the office space created for the Green Caffè Nero team. I am convinced that our modernised office building, also in terms of technology and sustainable solutions, will be a great place to work and integrate. Its unique location in the heart of Warsaw, next to Saski Park, remains a huge distinguishing feature from the point of view of the employees of the companies that operate here. Employers feel this, so it is no surprise that Saski Crescent is already fully let.”

The interior concept was developed following consultations with employees and management. Grzegorz Rajca, Associate Director at Colliers Define, said: “Both managers and team members were involved in the process of determining the optimal working environment for Green Caffè Nero. The result of this joint effort is a space that reflects the company’s cul

The Polish branch has leased nearly 200 sq m of office space on the ground floor of the RUBIN building, facing the linear park that runs through the complex in the Kamionek district. The office is scheduled to open in May.

The office design, prepared with functionality and operational efficiency in mind, meets our expectations and we simply like it. An important addition is the green and aesthetic surroundings of the complex, where all necessary services, catering and recreational areas are in close proximity. We are convinced that the location in SOHO by Yareal and the quality of the space’s finish will support our activities in the coming years.”

The office will be fitted out by Deer Design, with completion planned for May. HOERBIGER Polska has signed a 10-year lease agreement.

Paulina Petynka, Commercial Leasing Director at Yareal Polska, commented: “We are very pleased to have concluded the first office lease agreement at SOHO by Yareal. The addition of such a renowned global company as HOERBIGER to our tenant portfolio shows that SOHO is a great place not only for living, enjoying pleasant culinary experiences and using various services, but also for business development and office work. This tenant’s move from Warsaw’s city centre confirms that Praga-Południe can successfully compete in terms of office location even with the capital’s central districts. We would like to thank HOERBIGER Polska for their trust and for recognising the business potential of SOHO by Yareal.”

SOHO by Yareal is a mixed-use development designed by HRA Architekci that combines residential, retail, service and office functions.

Signum Work Station in Warsaw to Be Supplied with Renewable Energy under PPA

TriGranit has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with UNIMOT for the supply of electricity from renewable sources to the Signum Work Station office building in Warsaw for the next three years. Westbridge Advisory Poland advised on the negotiation of the agreement for the property located in the Mokotów district.

A PPA is a direct long-term contract between an energy producer and an end user that provides fixed pricing and traceability of the energy source. Such agreements are typically used to stabilise energy costs and reduce exposure to market price fluctuations.

Under the contract with UNIMOT, electricity supplied to Signum Work Station will come from wind and photovoltaic installations located in Poland. The total volume of electricity covered by the agreement is expected to exceed 12 GWh over three years. According to estimates provided by the parties, the new procurement model may generate savings of more than PLN 300,000 compared with previous arrangements due to more predictable pricing and lower exposure to CO₂-related charges.

The agreement is also expected to reduce CO₂ emissions by approximately 8,750 tonnes over the contract period, based on Poland’s emission factor.

Marta Zawadzka, Head of Leasing and Asset Management at TriGranit, said: “Entering into a PPA for Signum Work Station forms part of our long-term strategy to strengthen the building’s value and resilience – both operationally and as an investment asset. We focus on solutions that tangibly enhance cost stability, reduce exposure to energy market volatility, and at the same time support the energy transition. Direct access to renewable energy from traceable sources is now one of the key factors driving the competitiveness of modern office developments. For our tenants, this translates not only into predictable and lower energy costs, but also into measurable support for achieving their ESG objectives. The PPA provides assurance that they are using genuinely green energy, enhancing the credibility of reporting and stakeholder trust. It is a solution that increases the building’s attractiveness today while safeguarding its value over the long term.”

Preparation of the agreement and negotiations were coordinated by Westbridge Advisory Poland, which provides energy and sustainability advisory services to the real estate sector.

Tomasz Kwiatkowski, Senior Consultant at Westbridge Poland, commented: “By signing the PPA for Signum, TriGranit has secured the majority of the building’s electricity demand with green energy sourced from farms located in Poland. This demonstrates a highly conscious approach to the energy transition, where stability, cost security and a tangible reduction of the carbon footprint were of paramount importance. We are pleased to have advised on this pioneering transaction, which sets a new benchmark for the commercial real estate sector.”

Signum Work Station is located on Domaniewska Street in Warsaw’s Mokotów business district. The office building comprises seven above-ground and three underground floors and offers more than 32,400 sq m of leasable space, along with approximately 870 parking spaces. In addition to office areas, the property includes retail, service and storage units. The building holds a BREEAM “Excellent” certification and is undergoing further certification processes. Recent upgrades include the installation of two independent power sources intended to improve operational reliability.

The property is situated around 15 minutes by car from Warsaw city centre and approximately 10 minutes from Warsaw Chopin Airport, with access by public transport, car and bicycle. Current tenants include Ringier Axel Springer, enel-med, Mondelez International, Columbia and PPD.

Signum Work Station was acquired by DRFG in December 2024. The current owners are the CREIF fund and DRFG Investment Group, acting through DRFG Assets. TriGranit, part of DRFG Investment Group, is responsible for leasing and asset management of the building.

Ingram Micro Extends Cooperation with MLP Group

MLP Group has renewed its lease agreement with Ingram Micro, a global distributor of IT solutions and mobile devices, at the MLP Pruszków II logistics centre near Warsaw. The renewed lease covers approximately 8,200 sq m of warehouse and office space. CBRE supported the renegotiation process and the conclusion of the transaction.

The extension continues a cooperation that began in 2020. Under the new agreement, Ingram Micro will retain its entire leased area, including more than 7,900 sq m allocated to warehouse operations and nearly 300 sq m used for office and staff facilities.

MLP Pruszków II is a logistics park located on the outskirts of Warsaw, offering space designed for logistics, distribution and e-commerce operators. The park is positioned close to key transport routes and provides modern technical standards intended to meet the operational needs of tenants.

Ingram Micro operates internationally as a distributor of IT hardware, mobile devices and related technology solutions. Its services include support in networking, data centres, cybersecurity, cloud services and computer equipment distribution.

Tomasz Pietrzak, Leasing Director Poland at MLP Group, said:

“The extension of the lease by Ingram Micro is the best confirmation of the quality of the space we offer and our partnership-based approach to cooperation with tenants. We are pleased that a leading technology distributor continues to develop its operations at MLP Pruszków II, choosing our center as a stable operational base for the coming years.”

According to MLP Group, the transaction aligns with its strategy of maintaining long-term tenant relationships and providing flexible logistics space.

Patryk Romanowski, Associate Director in the Industrial & Logistics Leasing Department at CBRE, commented:

“Pruszków is an attractive location for doing business, particularly for companies seeking proximity to Warsaw while at the same time optimizing costs. Its key advantages include good transport connections, lower operating costs, ongoing infrastructure development and access to a skilled labor market. It is therefore no surprise that the client decided to continue its operations at the current location and further its cooperation with MLP Group.”

MLP Pruszków II is the largest logistics complex in the area, with a planned gross leasable area of 427,000 sq m. Selected buildings have received BREEAM certification, and photovoltaic panels are being installed on rooftops as part of the group’s ESG programme.

The park is located between local road No. 760 and the A2 motorway, approximately 3 km from the Pruszków–Żbików junction. Railway lines run nearby, supporting domestic and international logistics operations. On-site amenities include a bus stop and a public bicycle station.

The site on Arthur-Ladebeck-Straße will continue to be used by Thyssenkrupp Schulte as a sales location until the end of 2026, after which Garbe Regeneration will assume control. Thyssenkrupp Schulte, which is part of Thyssenkrupp Materials Services, plans to consolidate its operations in the city at its Südring site.

Rick Mädel, Managing Director of Garbe Regeneration, said: “We already have planning permission and ideas for the realisation of the Garbe Industrial Park Bielefeld. However, before we make a final commitment, we are still examining other possible uses.”

Garbe Regeneration, launched in August last year, focuses on the early identification and redevelopment of underused or derelict land for new functions. The company operates within the Garbe Industrial group, which develops and manages logistics and industrial real estate across Germany and Europe.

In the longer term, Garbe Regeneration intends to pursue projects across multiple asset classes, including commercial and residential uses, and offers services to internal group entities as well as external owner-occupiers and joint-venture partners.

Commenting on the location, Mädel added: “The brownfield site on Arthur-Ladebeck-Straße impresses on the one hand with its excellent transport links and on the other with its size in a central location.”

The property is situated within a large commercial area along one of Bielefeld’s main outbound roads, with access to regional transport routes nearby.

Hines has completed the sale of the Wola Center office complex in Warsaw to Trigea Fund, managed by Trigea nemovitostní fond, SICAV, a.s. The transaction was carried out on behalf of Hines European Value Fund 1 (HEVF 1).

Kamil Nurek, Managing Director and Co-Head of Poland at Hines, said:

The buyer, Trigea Fund, is a Czech open-ended real estate fund within the Partners group. The fund focuses on commercial properties, primarily office, logistics and retail assets in the Czech Republic and Poland, typically in established and well-connected locations with high occupancy levels.

Pavel Novák, Member of the Board and Portfolio Manager at Trigea Fund, commented: “We invest in stable, modern commercial properties in the best locations, and Wola Center perfectly fits this strategy. It is a recognizable address in Warsaw’s dynamically developing business district, with a long-term, diversified tenant base.

Andreas Schmid Group Leases Nearly 7,000 sq m of Logistics Space in Olching near Munich

The Andreas Schmid Group has signed a long-term lease for approximately 6,800 sq m of warehouse and office space in Olching, northwest of Munich. The transaction was brokered by integrated logistics real estate consultancy Logivest. The property at Gewerbering 14–16 is owned by a company managed by AEW.

The Andreas Schmid Group, which specialises in beverage logistics, secured the lease after winning a tender to manage logistics for a Munich-based brewery and subsequently seeking suitable premises in the western part of the metropolitan area. According to Logivest, the location offers direct access to the A471 federal road and links to the A8 motorway.

Alexander Dempfle, Consultant Industrial and Logistics Letting at Logivest in Munich, said the Olching submarket remains attractive due to its proximity to the A8 corridor and surrounding residential districts, adding that demand in the Munich logistics market has recently shown signs of recovery and gradual stabilisation.

The building holds a DGNB Gold sustainability certification and is equipped with a rooftop photovoltaic system and LED lighting throughout the approximately 6,000 sq m warehouse area. The logistics facilities include multiple loading ramps, a ground-level gate and a large manoeuvring yard. Modern office and staff areas account for more than 800 sq m of the total leased space.

The premises were occupied in January 2026.

Silverton Repurposes Former Retail Warehouse in Duisburg for Wellnest Spa Concept

Silverton Group, acting as asset manager, has completed the repurposing of a former retail warehouse at Max-Peters-Strasse 4–6 in Duisburg. Following the repositioning of the property, the premises have been taken over by Wellnest, which now operates a spa concept at the site. The space was handed over to the tenant in June 2024, with the facility opening after an extensive conversion period.

Silverton is responsible for the asset management of the property. The decision to repurpose the building followed the loss of its original retail function, which was no longer considered viable at the location. The warehouse had previously been occupied by office supply retailer Staples, which filed for insolvency in 2022. In cooperation with the incoming tenant, a new usage concept was developed to address the vacancy and provide a long-term operational perspective for the asset.

The repositioning included a comprehensive refurbishment of the premises. The completed scheme comprises 17 self-contained spa suites, referred to as “nests,” each equipped with a private sauna, sensory shower, whirlpool and relaxation area. The suites can be booked and used individually. The planning, permitting procedures and execution of the construction works were carried out by Wellnest.

Silverton provided advisory support to the landlord throughout the process and facilitated the project through structured guidance and tenant incentives intended to provide planning security during the extended conversion phase. According to Sebastian Steinert, Managing Director of Silverton Asset Solutions GmbH, the project illustrates how cooperation and long-term planning can support the redevelopment of existing assets.

The redevelopment converts a former large-format retail space into a leisure-oriented use considered more suitable for the location. Silverton noted that the project builds on experience from earlier local conversions, including the transformation of a former car dealership into a Monkey Town indoor play centre in 2021.

Urban Partners Acquires PRS Investment in Gdańsk from Cavare S.A. in Forward Funding Deal

Cavare S.A., part of the Cavatina group, has entered into a forward funding transaction with the NSF VI fund managed by Urban Partners, covering the sale of the Palio C property on Jana z Kolna Street in Gdańsk and an agreement for Cavare to manage the delivery of a private rented sector (PRS) scheme on the site. The project provides for the construction of a residential building offering fully furnished units in an institutional rental model, which is expected to operate under the Lett brand.

The planned development will comprise 336 residential units with a total net leasable area of 10,177 sq m, complemented by 495 sq m of service space. The unit mix is primarily designed for single and two-person households, and the building will include shared amenities such as a gym and co-working areas.

Cavare S.A. is overseeing the project under a Development Management Agreement (DMA), with completion currently scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2027.

Commenting on the transaction, Bartłomiej Wentlandt, Managing Director of Cavare S.A., said: This is another important step for us in the development of our PRS business and confirmation that the forward funding model of cooperation with institutional investors is beneficial for both the developer and the investor. Thanks to this, the project will be implemented to a high standard in line with our standards, and future residents will receive products that meet their location and functional needs.

Magdalena Terefenko, Vice President at Urban Partners, added: The investment in the Palio C project is another step in the implementation of our long-term strategy of building a sustainable institutional rental portfolio in the largest Polish agglomerations. Gdańsk, as a dynamically developing city with strong demographic and economic foundations, fits perfectly into this direction. Working with a partner such as Cavatina allows us to combine our development experience with our investment approach, which focuses on creating high-quality living spaces. We see significant growth potential in the PRS segment in Poland and are convinced that projects such as this one will play an increasingly important role in shaping the modern housing market.

Upon completion, the scheme will operate under the Lett brand, Urban Partners’ residential platform focused on professionally managed rental housing in major Polish cities. The concept emphasises quality standards, transparent rental terms and access to shared amenities designed to support urban living.

Cavare S.A. was advised on the transaction by CBRE and Dentons, while Urban Partners was supported by CMS Cameron McKenna, MDDP and Savills.

The project is viewed as part of the continued expansion of Poland’s institutional PRS market, a segment that has been recording steady demand growth in the country’s largest urban centres.
