CEE industry property specialist Accolade has completed the first class A industrial park in Elblag, Poland, becoming also the local market leader.
The 20,000 m2 warehouse, consisting of two buildings, is located on a seven hectare site and is fully leased to electronics manufacturing services company Flex and global parcel delivery network DPD.
The Elblag park is BREEAM certified (Very Excellent), just like the other parks in Accolade's portfolio, and will soon be outfitted with Accolade's green features including e-waste containers, AEDs, and little landscaping on the plot surrounding the buildings.
The logistics asset is located just five km from the city centre, 35-minutes by car from the port of Gdansk, and has good access to Warsaw and Krakow thanks to the S7 expressway.
Jarek Wnuk, managing director of Accolade Poland, said: ‘The creation of our new industrial park brings with it 200 new jobs. Elblag offers access to a wide range of potential employees, and we are looking forward to filling the gap on the local employment market. Currently, there are no other class A warehouses in the immediate vicinity, and this is not the first time that we have entered a logistically underserved region and thrived. Accolade’s strategy to choose locations that are not obvious choices at first glance is based on our years of experience and ability to identify the potential of smaller cities and grow them together. Elblag is another example of this successful approach - the park is already fully leased.’
The new location strengthens Accolade’s position in Northern Poland, alongside the parks in Koszalin and Szczecin.
