InPost builds new factory together with Panattoni

Leader among delivery platforms for e-commerce in Europe, InPost, due to the rapid development of the Paczkomaty® InPost network in Poland and in Europe, is building a new Paczkomaty® factory and will develop a research and development center. The factory will be built within the newly created City Logistics Kraków Airport park and will occupy a total of 7,230 sqm. It will be put into use in June 2021. 

The new plant will be built right next to the Balice II A4 junction. As a result, InPost will increase the efficiency of production processes while ensuring a convenient location of the workplace for the staff and increase employment. In City Logistics Kraków Airport – in addition to the production of Paczkomaty®, including the electro-assembly of modules with touch screens – a research and development center with two laboratories and a showroom will be expanded. Development works will be carried out there, as well as tests of new solutions.

“The expansion of our infrastructure is not only about new Paczkomaty® locations – we are expanding the network this year at an unprecedented pace of 100 machines a week. The demand for new devices both in Poland and in Europe means that – apart from new sorting plants and logistics centers as well as investments in IT – our priority is to strengthen our position as a leading innovator and producer of Paczkomaty® in Europe. Thanks to this, we will significantly increase our possibilities of implementing new devices, and we will also be able to quickly introduce new, innovative solutions to our machines. Now we are also expanding the research and development center with laboratories to develop new innovations,” Rafał Brzoska, President of InPost, emphasized.

This is another cooperation between Panattoni and InPost – so far the logistics operator has leased a total of approx. 250,000 sqm, of which over 9,000 sqm in another Kraków park dedicated to city logistics – City Logistics Kraków I.
