Panattoni has been granted a EUR 36.5 million loan from BNP Paribas for the development of a new 54,000-square-meter distribution center for an unidentified retailer in Szczecin.
“The loan granted by BNP Paribas for our BTS project in Sczecin marks a further step in our strategy to develop centers tailored to the needs of our customers,” said Emilia Taczewska–Trojańska, Head of Debt Finance Poland at Panattoni. “This is a region that attracts interest from foreign firms, particularly those from Western Europe and Scandinavia, who want to place their warehouses and production facilities here. Panattoni is already well on the way to delivering its first million square metres in the Western Pomerania region.”
According to Panattoni, the center will be fitted with heat pumps, a 1 MWp solar installation, and greywater collection and energy management systems. The building will also include a social area, a relaxation zone, and 2,870 square meters of high-standard office space. The site will also include a bicycle parking area and electric vehicle charging stations. The development is to be certified under BREEAM as Outstanding.
The new distribution center will be located in the eastern part of Szczecin.
