Developer and investor CTP has purchased a plot of land with an area of 140,000 sqm in the Pomeranian Investment Center (PCI) – an industrial park located adjacent to the largest container terminal on the Baltic Sea. The land, acquired from the Gdańsk Economic Development Agency, will become the next phase of the CTPark Gdańsk Port industrial and logistics complex.
In March of last year, CTP announced the start of construction on its first investment in the Pomeranian region – a key area for cross-border logistics. As part of CTPark Gdańsk Port, the developer has so far constructed two buildings with a total area of 117,000 sqm. The complex is largely commercialized, and amongst its occupants are companies like NEFAB Packaging Poland, Morska Agencja Gdynia, and BayWa r.e. Now the company has purchased additional land to expand the project.
“Our entry into the Pomeranian warehouse market has proven to be a successful investment. That’s why we decided to expand our local portfolio with additional production and logistics buildings. As part of the second phase of CTPark Gdańsk Port, we will offer classic big box spaces (CTSpace), as well as smaller rental modules from 400 sqm (small business units), referred to in CTP as CTPBox and CTFlex. These smaller formats are particularly interesting for SMEs – the largest economic sector in Poland in terms of the number of companies, as they provide infrastructure for flexible, sustainable growth,” explains Piotr Flugel, Managing Director at CTP Poland.
The Pomeranian Investment Center, where CTPark Gdańsk Port is being constructed, serves as a logistics hub for the nearby Gdańsk Port and the Baltic Hub deepwater terminal, which directly receives ships from Asia. The industrial park has been designed for investors related to the maritime economy, offshore industry, and TSL sector. The PCI has built a road system in the area that helps facilitate the transport of heavy and oversized loads, ensuring the safety of shipments. The Gdańsk Economic Development Agency is responsible for the commercialization and economic activation of this area.
“Without a doubt, the second phase of the investment carried out by CTP on our land is not only another milestone in the development of the Pomeranian Investment Center, but first and foremost proof that the first stage brought tangible benefits to both the investor and us, as the Municipality of the City of Gdańsk. One such benefit is certainly the inflow of property tax revenue into the municipal budget. It is also worth noting that the company, despite selling the land, has ensured a steady income from the internal road system it built. I again congratulate the investor on this decision and thank them for the trust they have placed in Gdańsk,” says Marek Ossowski, Vice President of InvestGDA.
Thanks to the acquisition of land in Gdańsk, CTP’s land bank in Poland currently stands at 3 million sqm. In the first half of the year alone, the developer acquired 580,000 sqm of investment land in five strategic locations. The decision to acquire new plots is in line with the strategy announced by the CTP Group in 2023, which calls for annual investment spending of 300 million euros for further business development in Poland – a key growth market for CTP.
