Regulatory News:
CTP, Europe's largest listed developer, owner, and manager of
industrial and logistics properties by gross lettable area (GLA),
has leased an additional 42,000 sqm to Polish fashion producer LPP
at CTPark Bucharest West, the largest industrial park in Central
and Eastern Europe. LPP’s latest lease takes its total footprint at
CTPark Bucharest West to 131,000 sqm.
The Polish fashion retailer signed its original lease at CTPark
Bucharest West for 65,000 sqm in 2023 to create its first foreign
distribution centre in Romania. The company soon expanded its
facility in 2024 to bolster its e-commerce operations, increasing
its total footprint to 90,000 sqm and representing a significant
strategic move for the business.
LPP is one of the fastest-growing fashion retailers in Central
Europe, with nearly 2,500 stores operational in 40 countries. The
company owns five distinctive fashion brands: Reserved, Cropp,
House, Mohito, and Sinsay. The LPP Group's facility at CTPark
Bucharest West, managed by LPP Logistics, houses the latest
technology including state-of-the-art conveyor systems and
workstations with the capacity to store up to 25 million items.
LPP’s combined distribution centre, e-commerce and office facility
is highly sustainable in its operations with photovoltaic panels, a
rainwater recovery system and electric car charging stations
enhancing energy efficiency and sustainable travel.
CTPark Bucharest West is the largest industrial park in Europe
spanning approximately 857,000 sqm and ideally located to support
businesses with the manufacturing, transportation and distribution
of goods. The park sits on the A1 highway providing excellent
access to Bucharest’s growing population and the rest of Europe,
while the major Port of Constanta on the Black Sea is also within
easy reach. The close proximity to the Port of Constanta also
enables LPP to efficiently receive orders from its Asian suppliers.
Its e-commerce facility supports deliveries from the wider LPP
logistics network and acts as a cross-dock hub for deliveries from
Poland.
CTPark Bucharest West includes the unique Clubhaus community
centre, offering a high-quality working environment for its tenants
and over 2,500 employees. Clubhaus offers facilities such as a
restaurant, coffee shop, medical services, leisure &
entertainment areas, green space and bicycle paths, serving as a
community hub for neighbouring districts. A supermarket and sports
ground were launched in 2024 while the bicycle paths will soon be
extended.
Ionuț Anghel, Regional Development Manager at CTP Romania,
commented: “LPP’s expansion is a true success story, and we are
proud that CTP was chosen to be part of it! It is also a proof that
our business model, obsessive about our client's needs and
readiness to support their growth, was a perfect fit for LPPs
ambitious strategy. CTP Bucharest West is a state-of-the-art
industrial park and role model in CTP’s portfolio – it offers a
unique environment for clients like LPP and is always able to
respond to their requirements. Our adjacent landbank of 1.8 million
sqm offers development potential of 900k sqm, which would nearly
double the size of the park, and is another reason our clients
believe in CTP as a reliable and trusted partner for growth.”
Sebastian Sołtys, president of the management board of LPP
Logistics, said: “Recently, LPP Logistics has been focusing on
strengthening its overseas distribution and sourcing network. An
important part of this process is the cooperation with a renowned
partner such as CTP. Thanks to its strategic location, the LPP
Distribution Centre in Romania plays an important role for us, and
the Southern European region stands out for its significant growth
potential. We are pleased to be able to realise our ambitious plans
in cooperation with such a reliable and valued partner in the
industry.”
