ROSSMANN to Open Largest Czech Distribution Hub at CTPark Prague North

CTP has agreed a lease with drugstore chain ROSSMANN for a new 30,000 sqm logistics centre at CTPark Prague North, with completion scheduled for 2026. The scheme will become the retailer’s largest distribution hub in the Czech Republic, designed to support both store expansion and e-commerce growth.

ROSSMANN is investing more than CZK 500 million (€20.6 million) in the facility, its biggest single outlay since entering the Czech market over 30 years ago. CTP is reported to be contributing a further CZK 750 million in construction costs.

The building will be fitted with advanced logistics technologies including AI-supported inventory management, automated pick-tower systems and goods-to-person flows, which are expected to reduce picker walking distances from around 12 kilometres to just two kilometres per shift. Sustainability is also central to the project, which is being developed to achieve a BREEAM Outstanding certification.

Situated on the D8 motorway north of Prague, CTPark Prague North offers direct links to the capital and the wider country. The park provides extensive on-site amenities through CTP’s Clubhaus concept, including a cafeteria, amphitheatre, medical point, minimarket and sports facilities.

The transaction was brokered by Cushman & Wakefield. Karol Jakubek, Managing Director of ROSSMANN Czech Republic, said the new distribution hub will serve as the heart of the company’s national network, with full utilisation expected by 2027.
