7R with a new BTS investment

7R, a leading commercial real estate developer, is beginning construction on a built-to-suit (BTS) building for a company specializing in providing logistics solutions for the e-commerce industry in Europe. The 9,700-square-meter facility in Bydgoszcz will house a modern parcel sorting facility. Completion of the project is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027. This is another project 7R has implemented for this company; to date, the developer has delivered 44,000 square meters of modern warehouse space across five locations.

The project is being developed as part of the 7R Park Bydgoszcz I complex. In addition to the 9,700-square-meter BTS facility, the complex also offers the potential for expansion by an additional 22,000 square meters of speculative warehouse space. The first phase of the project, comprising 16,505 square meters, was previously completed and delivered in June 2022.

“Completing another investment for such a demanding partner, a leader in logistics solutions for the e-commerce sector, is an important confirmation of the trust we build by consistently delivering facilities that precisely meet the operational needs of our clients. BTS projects require very close collaboration from the planning stage, so we place particular emphasis on ensuring that the final building best supports both the tenant’s ongoing operations and long-term business development, while meeting high technological and environmental standards. Bydgoszcz remains one of the most promising logistics locations in Poland for us, which is why we are especially pleased to be implementing another joint project here,” said Marzena Taube, Leasing & Development Director, North-West Region, 7R.

The building at 7R Park Bydgoszcz I will be equipped with a range of solutions tailored to the specific needs of the tenant, who has revolutionized the Polish parcel market. Special charging areas for electric vehicles will be prepared on the property. Furthermore, the building will be equipped with an energy storage system, a generator, and a dual heating system combining heat pumps with a gas installation. These solutions will improve the facility’s energy efficiency and ensure the continuity of logistics operations.

7R Park Bydgoszcz I is a modern Class A logistics and warehouse park, designed for companies in the logistics, e-commerce, distribution, and light manufacturing sectors. The complex’s flexible structure allows for the space to be tailored to tenants’ needs, both in terms of scale of operations and specific operational processes. The project is BREEAM certified at an Excellent level.

The complex is located less than 6 km from the center of Bydgoszcz, one of the key logistics hubs in north-central Poland. The city and its surrounding area boast a highly developed transportation infrastructure and a qualified workforce from various industries. The location offers direct access to the S10 expressway, connecting Bydgoszcz with Toruń and Szczecin, as well as the S5 expressway, providing connections to Poznań, Wrocław, and the Tricity area. The development is less than 7 km from Ignacy Jan Paderewski Airport and a similar distance from Bydgoszcz Główna railway station.

The modern warehouse space market in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship encompasses over 950,000 square meters, and Bydgoszcz and its neighboring municipalities are attracting the attention of international players and demonstrating significant potential – both in terms of new production and warehouse investments and the leasing of existing facilities.

“Just a few years ago, many leading companies in their industries focused primarily on the largest warehouse markets. The dynamic growth of e-commerce, shorter delivery times, and the development of individual consumer markets have led to a radical change. Today, we clearly see that finding a location that combines good transport accessibility with the ability to implement a project tailored to specific business needs is becoming crucial. At the same time, we observe that clients are increasingly starting conversations not with an available warehouse, but with the possibility of creating a facility that supports their operational processes and long-term growth. The Bydgoszcz region responds very well to these expectations, and our collaboration with the European leader in logistics solutions for the e-commerce industry is the best proof of this,” commented Kamil Szabłowski, Senior Leasing Manager at 7R.
