Logistics space developer Panattoni Europe is now developing a 32,000-sqm warehouse project in Łódź for sporting goods retailer Decathlon. The scheme, which will be located close to the existing Panattoni Park Łódź East logistics park, approximately 11 kilometers from the downtown of the city, is scheduled for completion in March next year. Decathlon has been present in Poland since 2001 and currently has 46 brick-and-mortar stores across the country. The development now under construction in Łódź will be the second warehouse of the company in Poland and is expected to serve both the B&M stores and the e-commerce operations of the retailer in the north of the country, as well as in Scandinavia. Robert Dobrzycki, the CEO Europe at Panattoni Europe, said that the investment testifies to the growing significance of online sales and the fact that the Nordic countries are now being increasingly served from Poland.
