A gigantic investment in the heart of Poland
The warehouse center is being built in the BTO (build-to-own) formula, which means that the logistics giant Panattoni will build a facility tailored to the client's needs, i.e. Media Expert. This is not the first investment of this type between the two companies.
It is not without reason that it was located in Łódź, which is located in an ideal place in terms of logistics, and – as Michał Mystkowski, press spokesman for Media Expert, emphasizes, “innovative logistics is today one of the most important success factors in multi-channel trade.”
