Hebe to open store in SOHO by Yareal Development in Warsaw

Yareal Polska has announced that Hebe, the retail chain owned by Jeronimo Martins, will become a tenant in the SOHO by Yareal mixed-use development currently under construction in Warsaw’s Kamionek district. The new Hebe store, covering over 320 square metres, will be located on the ground floor of the SOHO 10 building and is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2026.

Hebe, present in Poland since 2011, offers a broad range of cosmetics and personal care products, including exclusive brands and an extensive selection of natural, Korean, Japanese, and professional cosmetics. The brand operates more than 370 stores nationwide, in both large cities and smaller towns, as well as online. The new location at SOHO by Yareal will expand Hebe’s presence in Warsaw’s Praga-Południe district.

The SOHO 10 building, situated on Żupnicza Street, is designed as part of the broader SOHO by Yareal project. The building will feature contemporary architecture with references to Kamionek’s industrial heritage, including a white façade with geometric patterns and corten steel accents in the ground-floor arcade areas. SOHO 10 is a residential building arranged in an inverted L-shaped layout, ranging from four to nine storeys, and forms part of an urban block alongside the NEFRYT apartment building, creating an internal courtyard landscaped with greenery. The building also adjoins a tree-lined square connected to a linear park, a central feature of the SOHO by Yareal master plan. Patrycja Włodarczyk of Homest participated in facilitating the lease transaction for Hebe’s new premises.

Paulina Petynka, Commercial Leasing Director at Yareal Polska, noted that the inclusion of Hebe aligns with the project’s strategy to provide a comprehensive range of services and retail offerings for residents and the surrounding community. She highlighted the balance between unique local concepts and well-known retail chains that SOHO by Yareal aims to deliver.

SOHO by Yareal is conceived as a modern local hub, integrating residential, commercial, recreational, and office spaces, all designed according to the principles of the 15-minute city concept. The development combines renovated post-industrial buildings with new construction, aiming to create a cohesive urban environment. Features such as a linear park, landscaped courtyards, terraces, and pedestrian-friendly areas promote community engagement and limit car traffic.

The project will ultimately provide over 11,300 square metres of retail and service space across multiple locations, including ground floors of residential buildings and renovated historic structures. Existing tenants and planned additions to the complex include a kindergarten, a playroom, a Carrefour store in the ‘300’ format, cafés, beauty salons, a flower shop, a bakery, and an architectural studio. Following Hebe’s opening in early 2026, Green Caffè Nero is expected to open in May 2026, and later that year, a food hub will launch in the historic building No. B.56, featuring food concepts such as Bułkę przez Bibułkę, Pollypizza Neopolitan, and Baken.

The development is progressing with ongoing renovations of historic structures and the completion of the final residential phase, including SOHO 10 and the NEFRYT building, which is expected to be finished by the end of 2025.
