Intermarché, part of the Muszkieterowie Group, has opened a new distribution centre in the Silesian Voivodeship. The facility, developed by Panattoni, is located within Panattoni Park Sosnowiec IV and marks the retailer’s relocation from its previous warehouse in Mysłowice. The move expands Intermarché’s logistics capacity by more than 6,000 square metres, with the company now occupying 33,600 sqm at the new site. The official opening on June 10, 2025, was attended by senior representatives from the Muszkieterowie Group and Intermarché Poland, along with local authorities, including the Mayor of Sosnowiec, and representatives from the development and investment teams. According to Intermarché Poland President Adrian Podziemski, the facility will improve distribution efficiency and enhance the handling of fresh and frozen goods. He also noted the importance of energy efficiency, which aligns with the group’s sustainability goals. The warehouse includes a dedicated cold storage zone of 9,500 sqm, with a 2,000 sqm freezer area. Energy-saving features include LED lighting with automated DALI control systems, heat recovery ventilation, and a 1,100 kWp rooftop photovoltaic installation. Office areas were designed to ensure thermal and acoustic comfort, natural lighting, and good air quality. Facilities for employees include electric vehicle charging stations and a covered bicycle shelter. Panattoni Park Sosnowiec IV has a total floor area of 62,800 sqm across two buildings. The site is situated near National Road 94 and three kilometres from the S1 expressway. Developed on a former industrial brownfield site, the area previously housed the “Ignacy” mine shaft, the “Silma” electric motor plant, and the Expo Silesia exhibition centre. The project represents a major revitalization effort aimed at transforming former industrial land into a modern logistics hub. The complex is expected to receive BREEAM certification at the “Excellent” level. Environmental measures include reinforced rooftops for photovoltaic panels, lifecycle carbon footprint analysis, use of certified wood materials, and compliance with sustainable building product standards. As part of the site landscaping, 275 mature trees were planted, along with a wildflower meadow, insect habitats, and preserved forest sections, contributing to the site’s biodiversity.
