Production halls - Warsaw Inner
Masovia Province, with Warsaw, the capital city of Poland, is the largest of Polish provinces, both in the terms of area (11.4%) and population (13.6%). The region has the largest workforce with varied skills, sporting the highest number of universities and colleges in Poland. Other advantages of this region include the high activity and entrepreneurial spirit of the inhabitants of the Warsaw agglomeration, young workforce and a good level of education in Warsaw and other cities in the province (Płock, Radom, Siedlce, Ostrołęka, Ciechanów). The good economic development of the region is reflected in the lowest unemployment rate in Poland (9.6%) and the highest number of employed persons (over 2 million).
Masovia Province is an agricultural region, however, due to the presence of the capital of Poland and other large urban centres, the region is also a focal point for business, science, industry and infrastructure. The main advantages of the region also include high R&D potential, the highest number of foreign investments and the presence of headquarters of key financial institutions. Key government institutions and the largest Polish companies have their headquarters in the region too.
Being advantageously located at the crossroads of important transport, trade and financial routes makes Masovia one of the fastest growing regions in Poland and the entire Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw sports the Poland’s busiest airport, serving 82% of the country’s international passenger traffic and approx. 49% of domestic traffic.
Construction sector is another driving force for the region (with 20.5% of total Poland’s output) and is characterised mainly by a large number of new flats built each year as well as the largest amount of office, commercial and industrial space.
The Warsaw area remains the largest warehouse and industrial market in Poland as well as the most diversified market in terms of supply, locations and tenants. The planned completion of A2 motorway and improvements to road infrastructure around Warsaw will have a decisive impact on the shape and development of warehouse and industrial parks in the area.
The majority of industrial facilities are located near exit roads to Poznan, Katowice and Krakow. Those areas enjoy interest mainly from production companies, which transfer their production to city outskirts in order to reduce costs. The above areas are well connected to the city centre through light rail and mass transit system. Warsaw has a good employment market, especially in respect of qualified managers, while the nearby smaller towns provide production workers.
The total supply of modern warehouse and industrial space in the entire region is 2 328 000 sq m (as at the end of 2010), of which 482 000 sq m is located in Warsaw itself.
Masovia is a very attractive investment area, both due to geographical factors and the region’s key role in Polish economy. Virtually all types of industries can be found in Masovia. A number of Special Economic Zones (Tarnobrzeg, Łodz, Warmia and Mazury, Suwałki and Starachowice) as well as Płock Industrial and Technological Park also operate in the region.
