Panattoni Park Kraków East V: New 39,000 sqm Warehouse Secures First Tenant – Highway Automotive

Panattoni Park Kraków East V will feature a Class A warehouse with a total area of 39,000 sqm. Of this, 8,000 sqm will be occupied by Highway Automotive, which will use the space to support its global operations starting in May 2025. "Our company is growing year by year. We need a facility perfectly suited to our planned development but also optimized for our logistics processes, warehouse, and office team operations. Panattoni Park Kraków East V has fully met our requirements. The new headquarters are designed based on our needs, and the location is another very important advantage," explains Paweł Łysień, COO of Highway Automotive.

Panattoni Park Kraków East V will be strategically located just 2 km from the A4 motorway junction and 9 km from the S7 expressway. The proximity to Balice airport, approximately 30 km away, further enhances the appeal of this site for logistics and production companies. Thanks to flexible module sizes, the facility can be adapted to various needs – from typical logistics operations to light manufacturing.

BREEAM Certification at Excellent Level

The new park will undergo environmental certification through the BREEAM method at the Excellent level, confirming its compliance with the highest environmental standards. This allows tenants to benefit from reduced operating costs and increased market value for their businesses.

Panattoni is steadily expanding its operations in the Małopolska region. To date, it has completed over 290,000 sqm of industrial space in the area. Last year, the developer delivered its largest regional investment – Panattoni Park Kraków North, with an area of 56,500 sqm, along with two parks located in Skawina. This year, two more projects have been completed: City Logistics Kraków Airport II and Panattoni Park Kraków East IV.

"The business potential of Krakow lies primarily in its vast human capital – the second-largest population in the country and a thriving academic center that educates talent for many industries. As an industrial real estate developer, the main development challenge in this region is the limited availability of land. We managed to purchase a well-located plot where a modern and versatile facility will be built," comments Filip Noworól, senior leasing manager at Panattoni.
