The new logistic park is being developed on a land plot of approx. 250,000 sqm and will have a total potential GLA of about 120,000 sqm divided over 4 buildings. Construction of the first building with a surface of 28,000 sqm is planned to be kicked-off in June 2021. Delivery is expected for December 2021.

Located in the northern part of Bucharest, the park offers flexibility to potential tenants in terms of layout and build-to-suit options.

The site’s location, in addition to the labor availability in this part of Bucharest, makes it ideal for companies active in the logistics, e-commerce, and retail industries, being a perfect site with direct access to the city center for last-mile distribution.

"We are very pleased to have acquired this strategically located land plot near the Romanian capital and thereby to enter Bucharest market as well. With technological changes and e-commerce continuing to be an important driver for demand for high-standard facilities, we experience a solid demand from potential tenants. With this new park, we can offer high quality & sustainable premises on a top Bucharest location” says Adrian Crizbășianu, Country Manager VGP Romania.
