Highlights included new leasing agreements totalling nearly 485,530 sq m and a half-year-end operating portfolio of 16.6 million sq m.

Prologis is seeing noticeable growth among e-commerce customers who require a flexible platform coupled with great location, a professional property management team and other benefits. Currently, Prologis is developing an additional 20,500 sq m for Mall.cz, an online consumer goods and electronics store, which will be situated adjacent to Mall.cz’s existing 31,000 sq m build-to-suit facility at Prologis Park Prague-Jirny, delivered in 2015. The new building, DC5, will be fully customised to meet the specific requirements of e-commerce distribution. A new e-commerce customer of Prologis is Linemart, a third-party logistics provider owned by Shenzhen Sailvan Network, a China-based e-commerce company, who leased 18,166 sq m of distribution space at Prologis Park Prague-Airport DC1. Linemart, who operate the online clothing stores CNDirect and Dress Link, will use the space to serve their customers across Europe. Another example of Prologis’ success is the lease agreement signed with Bonami, a Czech e-commerce homewares retailer, who will occupy 5,795 sq m also at Prologis Park Prague-Airport DC1. “The location of this facility, which offers great access to various domestic and international trade routes that support

AUTOMOTIVE DRIVES CZECH & SLOVAK LOGISTICS MARKET
While e-commerce is a growing trend throughout the region, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are especially benefiting from the growth of the automotive industry. In addition to providing space for customers such as DEMO Autoplast and Toyota Tshusho in the Czech Republic and Carcoustic in Slovakia, in April, Prologis celebrated the grand opening of a 25,414 sq m build-to-suit facility for BMW Group at Prologis Park Bratislava. As with all BTS facilities, Prologis worked closely with BMW to ensure the space fit their specific requirements. The state-of-the-art distribution facility, DC9, features LED lighting, temperature control, perimeter lighting, surveillance, IT solutions and a dangerous goods room (ADR). It will serve as a spare parts distribution hub for all of Central Europe. “Business moves fast and for our industry it is essential to respond just as fast to changing demands dictated by today’s growth sectors,” said Martin Baláž: “Based on the results we’ve seen in the CEE region so far this year, I believe Prologis is on the right track when it comes to meeting the unique needs of customers across all sectors today.” PR
