“The decision by our partner to locate a key logistics facility in Świdnik proves that Poland offers attractive alternatives outside major metropolitan areas. The Lublin region is now one of the most promising warehouse markets in the country. Back in 2014, it offered less than 14,000 sqm of space. By the end of 2024, that number will have grown to nearly 500,000 sqm. It’s a remarkable transformation, and we’re proud that Accolade is helping shape this dynamic market,” says Jakub Leszczyński, Transaction Director at Accolade Poland.
11,400 sqm tailored to operations – full BTS efficiency
The new facility will offer 11,400 sqm of space and is being developed within the existing Panattoni complex in Świdnik, where Accolade already owns two modern buildings totaling 52,000 sqm. This BTS project is fully customized to meet the operational and technological requirements of its courier client.
The design includes optimized loading docks, office spaces, and employee amenities – all focused on maximizing efficiency, functionality, and user comfort.
Strong financial backing and sustainable design
The development is backed by a €11.5 million loan granted by Alior Bank, with the total project value exceeding €17.5 million. Completion and handover are scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025.
“The warehouse sector in Poland is stable, but at the same time more advanced and sustainability-driven. We’re proud to support transactions that reflect both current demand and long-term market trends. Our cooperation with Accolade is a great example of future-oriented development,” says Michał Szymczak, Corporate Client Director, Corporate Banking Center, Alior Bank.
The new facility will meet the highest technical standards, aligned with the EU green taxonomy and ESG requirements. The building will be designed with a strong focus on energy efficiency and employee well-being.
Regional markets on the rise – Świdnik and Legnica as new logistics hubs
Accolade’s latest project in Świdnik – just 1 km from Lublin’s city limits – is a clear example of how regional locations are becoming magnets for logistics and industrial development. Nearly all available warehouse space in the area is already leased, underscoring the strength of the local market. Once the third building is completed, Accolade’s footprint in Świdnik will total 64,000 sqm of modern warehouse infrastructure.
A similar trend is visible in western Poland. Panattoni Park Legnica, located along the S3 expressway and close to the A4 motorway, offers a strong alternative to the Wrocław market and is well-suited for international operations. The park will ultimately provide nearly 120,000 sqm of modern logistics space.
These developments show that the future of logistics in Poland is no longer limited to Warsaw, Poznań, or the Silesian region. Well-connected, flexible, and sustainability-focused regional hubs are becoming the new standard – and Accolade is leading this shift in eastern Poland, with Świdnik as a prime example.
