HSF System breaks ground on LOGspot Logatec logistics complex in Slovenia

The international construction group HSF System has been appointed as the general contractor for the first building in Slovenia’s new LOGspot Logatec logistics complex. The initial facility, covering 26,000 square meters, marks a significant development for the Slovenian logistics sector. The project is being developed by Slovakian company Atrios.

HSF System, known for its expertise in building logistics facilities across the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, and Austria, is taking on its first project in Slovenia with LOGspot Logatec. “This will be the first logistics facility in Slovenia to achieve BREEAM ‘Very Good’ certification,” said Tomáš Kosa, Director of HSF System’s construction group. He added that the project presents a significant opportunity for expanding Slovenia’s logistics capacity, and the company is eager to bring its expertise to the project’s execution.

The LOGspot Logatec park is strategically located approximately 25 kilometers from Ljubljana and 75 kilometers from the Port of Koper, key logistical hubs for the region. The first warehouse, expected to be operational by the second quarter of 2025, will feature sustainable design elements such as a rooftop photovoltaic power plant and an innovative air exchange system for energy-efficient heating and cooling. The facility will also include charging stations for electric vehicles, further enhancing its green credentials.

Michal Bubán, Managing Partner of Atrios, highlighted the project’s commitment to sustainability. “The LOGspot brand represents our focus on developing modern, Class A logistics facilities in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and South Eastern Europe (SEE) regions,” he said. “Our completed facilities primarily serve companies in logistics, retail, automotive, and FMCG sectors.”

The LOGspot Logatec complex is a key element in the development of the largest industrial zone in Slovenia outside the capital. The municipality of Logatec is supporting the project, which aims to connect two existing industrial areas, providing a modern logistics hub without the need to pass through residential zones. The facility’s direct access to the A1 motorway ensures excellent connectivity for logistics operations.

The first tenant of the LOGspot Logatec complex will be Milšped Slovenia, a leading company specializing in comprehensive logistics solutions for the Slovenian FMCG sector, as well as export, automotive, and trade sectors.
