MEDiVET S.A., a leading provider of veterinary services and products, has leased more than 6,500 sq m of warehouse and office space in Fortress Logistics Park Bydgoszcz. It was advised by global real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield for the choice of location and during the lease negotiations and preparation of warehouse technical specifications. Legal advice to Fortress Logistics Real Estate during the lease negotiations was provided by Legal Hub Wojnarowska Ścigała Irlik sp. j.
MEDiVET is relocating its warehouse to Fortress Logistics Park in Bydgoszcz to implement the highest distribution standards and to improve them further in the rapidly changing veterinary sector. This location is also important for ensuring work continuity for our team and expanding our offering of logistics services for our clients,
says Robert Kaszyński, CEO, MEDiVET.
MEDiVET sends out on average more than 1,600 shipments a day, providing same-day deliveries and order fulfilment for veterinary surgeons within 24 hours. The technical and IT solutions allow for round-the-clock control over stored products at temperature ranges of +2°C to +8°C and +15°C to +25°C. Our new warehouse space meets all the European standards for safe pharmaceutical storage and distribution,
says Michał Wadas, Head of Logistics, MEDiVET.
The primary objective during the search for the optimal location for MEDiVET was to find a warehouse that would enable our client to provide seamless deliveries and to adapt its space to strict pharmaceutical and veterinary requirements. Such a warehouse must feature various zones, including reception/dispatch areas and storage space. The right temperature is also critical – it should be in the range of +15°C to +25°C, and +2°C to +8°C in cold storage areas. We finally chose Fortress Logistics Park Bydgoszcz. Its convenient location and excellent cooperation with Fortress Logistics Real Estate in tailoring the space to the requirements of MEDiVET will allow for swift project delivery,
explains Konrad Jacewicz, Associate, Industrial Agency, Cushman & Wakefield.
We are proud that a leading pharmaceutical company MEDiVET has chosen Fortress Logistics Park Bydgoszcz on account of not only its prime location, but also the high quality of its warehouse space. This is a clear signal that our warehouse meets the highest standards. We thank the teams of MEDiVET and Cushman & Wakefield for their strong commitment to the negotiations which will see us hand over the ready-to-occupy space to MEDiVET this year. We hope our collaboration will greatly benefit both parties and contribute the further growth of MEDiVET on the Polish market,
says Aleksander Kobyliński, Associate Director Leasing & Asset Management, Fortress Logistics Real Estate.
The lease negotiation process was challenging as it required crafting solutions that would meet both the tenant’s logistics needs and the strict regulatory requirements of the pharmaceutical and veterinary sector. Thanks to the professionalism of all the parties and their focus on achieving common business goals, we managed to agree lease conditions that satisfied everyone. Importantly, the lease also incorporated green clauses on reducing carbon footprint and greenhouse gas emissions, which reflects the commitment of Fortress Logistics Real Estate and MEDiVET to sustainability and environmental protection,
