MDC² Park Kraków South attracts new tenants, expanding its diverse business community

MDC², a developer of sustainable warehouse and production spaces in Poland, in collaboration with Generali Real Estate, has secured four new lease agreements at its MDC² Park Kraków South project in Skawina, just 13 kilometers from the center of Kraków. The newly signed tenants will occupy a total of 16,000 square meters of warehouse and office space, further solidifying the park’s position as a key logistics hub in the region.

The new tenants include Emerald, a distributor of JHK-branded clothing; Iris Galerie, a French company specializing in iris photography for artistic purposes; AiK Tezeusz, Poland’s largest player in the book re-commerce market; and Libris, a company specializing in the management of paper and electronic documentation. Each company has secured substantial warehouse and office spaces tailored to their operational needs, contributing to the park’s dynamic and diverse business environment.

MDC² Park Kraków South is a strategic development that comprises three buildings with a total planned area of 83,000 square meters. One of the park’s key assets, a 36,200-square-meter facility, has already been fully leased to global medical technology company Stryker, while another building currently under construction will be occupied by leading logistics services provider InPost, with an 11,000-square-meter lease agreement signed for delivery by the end of 2025.

According to Katarzyna Dudzik, Development Director at MDC², the addition of these new tenants demonstrates the versatility of the project. She highlighted that Building 2, despite being constructed speculatively, offers premium features such as enhanced daylighting and superior insulation, making it an ideal space for both warehousing and light manufacturing operations. Dudzik expressed confidence that the state-of-the-art facilities will support the rapid growth of the new tenants and help them achieve their business objectives.

Generali Real Estate, the investment partner of the project, views MDC² Park Kraków South as a strategic component of its broader expansion in logistics and industrial real estate across Central and Eastern Europe. Miroslav Nutil, Asset Manager for Generali Real Estate CEE & Nordics Region, emphasized that the project’s design, which includes single-tenant and multi-tenant buildings, has proven to be a successful investment model. The development continues to attract key players across various industries, reinforcing its market potential and sustainability credentials.

The new tenants bring unique business models to the park. Emerald JHK.pl, a leading supplier of promotional and corporate clothing in Poland, will benefit from the new location’s proximity to major courier hubs, enabling faster delivery and improved stock management. Meanwhile, Iris Galerie is introducing its innovative art concept to the Polish market, offering customers a unique experience through macro photography of the human iris.

Libris, part of the Libris Global Holdings Ltd. group, specializes in archive management and document security, bringing years of expertise in ISO-certified information security and quality management. The company’s advanced storage facilities and IT infrastructure align perfectly with the modern logistics park’s capabilities. Tezeusz.pl, a dominant force in the Polish antique book market, plans to leverage its new facility to expand its e-commerce operations and foray into the European market, starting with the Czech Republic in 2025.

The environmentally conscious design of MDC² Park Kraków South further enhances its appeal to tenants prioritizing sustainability. The project incorporates innovative solutions such as photovoltaic panel-ready roofs, electric vehicle charging stations, and a rainwater retention system that repurposes grey water for sanitary use. A green façade with evergreen plants helps reduce heat exposure, while 95% of building materials used in the construction are recyclable. The park also features recreational and green spaces, creating a healthy and inspiring working environment.

Legal support for the lease transactions was provided by Greenberg Traurig, while Axi Immo Group and Cushman & Wakefield facilitated the commercial negotiations.

MDC² Park Kraków South continues to attract high-profile tenants from various sectors, reinforcing its position as a premier logistics destination in the region, offering top-tier facilities with a strong focus on sustainability and operational efficiency.
