20 January 2023

ATERIMA Group has a tradition spanning over 10 years and specialises in home care for seniors, employee recruitment and employment. The company has recently prolonged its existing lease in Bonarka for Business “B4B”, part of Revetas Capital portfolio in Poland and has leased an additional space in Building H, currently occupying a total area of 1,900 sqm. The tenant was represented by global real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield during the negotiations with the landlord.

The core business of ATERIMA Group comprises home care services for seniors and people with disabilities provided under the FAMILIEN MED and ATERIMA MED brands. ATERIMA WORK, part of ATERIMA Group, delivers the best services in hiring temporary staff while ATERIMA HR focuses on recruiting specialists and managers.

Our priority is to provide a comfortable work environment for the employees of ATERIMA Group. Bonarka for Business “B4B” is ideal as it boasts modern and well-designed space and a convenient location,

says Marzena Farion-Rzeźniczak, Head of HR, Communication and Change Management, ATERIMA Group.

Having analysed the market, ATERIMA decided to continue its lease in Bonarka for Business. The landlord’s client-first focus and the project key advantages were key to its decision to stay on,

says Karolina Słysz, Associate, Cushman & Wakefield.

Bonarka for Business (B4B) is today the largest and most renowned office parks in Krakow, with 8 class-A office buildings which provide a total GLA of 75,000 sqm. It is part of the widest urban reconstruction project in Poland, an awarded office complex distinguished for its unique aesthetics harmonized with the impressive historical legacy, including “artURBANICA 2012”. Bonarka for Business’ unparalleled position, near Krakow’s largest shopping center makes the park the ideal place for business, as it has the widest variety of amenities and services available on-site and nearby. These include approximately 230 shops, large parking area, hypermarket, restaurants, cafes, medical center, fitness club, kindergarten, book point, serviced offices, bicycle and pedestrian bridge and many others.

The project is located in Podgórze district, having multiple public transport connections, including 12 bus lines, 4 tram stops and Bonarka Railway station in the closest vicinity. Last year, Revetas Capital has invested in opening a new amenity for the B4B employees- B4B Oasis, which comprises 5,820 sqm of green area in an amphitheatre shape and is designed to be an innovative place for work, meetings, and relaxation. Revetas Capital is converting its prime office development portfolio of approximately 90,000 sqm developable GLA in 3 major cities in Poland into residential, including Krakow, entering Private Rental Sector (“PRS”). The first project, B4B Meadows in Krakow comprises 435 apartments and is positioned in the same area with over 76,500 sqm of class-A office complex Bonarka for Business “B4B”, a dominant 90,000+ sqm shopping centre, as well as an attractive residential area, creating a cohesive and unique live-work-play concept.

We are pleased about ATERIMA’s decision to extend their lease at Bonarka for Business, and moreover to expand their facilities in building H. This demonstrates the project’s attractiveness and quality in a highly competitive office market. We are proud of our prestigious tenant community and excited to build long-term collaborations through our tenant relationship program. We stay in close contact with each of our tenants and listen and respond to their feedback, as well as continuing to invest in improving their office experience in our office park. The recently inaugurated B4B Oasis, the B4B Meadows project, as well as the total redesign of the central square to create more green and relaxation areas for the employees illustrate our intention to provide an improved live-work-play concept at B4B and throughout our portfolio,

declared Robert Gouge, Principal at Revetas Capital.

Bonarka4Business serves as an excellent springboard for business growth – it has been home for ATERIMA for many years,

adds Elżbieta Golik, Senior Negotiator, Cushman & Wakefield.
