International retailer MR.DIY has joined the tenant mix of the Plejada Shopping Centre in Sosnowiec. Its new 700 sqm store will significantly enhance the shopping centreâs offering of household products and everyday essentials. Global real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield is responsible for the leasing and comprehensive management of the property. Additionally, the firmâs Project Development Services (PDS) team was engaged to prepare the technical conditions for MR.DIY, ensuring that the storeâs design aligns with Plejadaâs refurbishment concept.
Established in Malaysia in 2005, MR.DIY is a leading global retailer offering everyday essentials at affordable prices. The company operates nearly 6,000 stores across five continents. It has been active in Poland since November 2024 and is rapidly expanding its store network across the country.
The new store at CH Plejada Sosnowiec will offer a vast selection of homeware, kitchenware, hardware and furnishings, as well as office supplies, stationery and automotive products, toys and cosmetic accessories. The brand is committed to providing a convenient one-stop shopping experience for the entire family.
âPoland is an extremely important growth market for us. The opening of our Sosnowiec store marks another milestone in the strategy of expanding our presence in the countryâs key regions. Our choice of CH Plejada was deliberate â its ongoing comprehensive refurbishment and modern space concept perfectly align with our commitment to delivering a convenient and inspiring shopping experience. We are confident that our diverse assortment, coupled with our âAlways Low Pricesâ promise, will quickly make MR.DIY a preferred destination for everyday shopping among families in Sosnowiec and the surrounding areas. Fit-out works are currently under way, and we look forward to welcoming our first customers later this year,â comments Magdalena Nazarewicz, Business Development Director Europe at MR.DIY in Poland.
Works in a live environment
The comprehensive transformation and tenant-mix repositioning at Plejada Sosnowiec are nearing completion. Improvements introduced by the property owner include a new F&B zone, leisure areas and refreshed interiors. These enhancements are aimed at strengthening the shopping centreâs competitive advantage while bringing its design and systems in line with the highest standards of functionality and energy efficiency.
The arrival of MR.DIY aligns with the long-term repositioning of the shopping centre and the strategic curation of its tenant mix to meet the evolving needs of the local market. The renewed concept of retail space continues to attract leading brands, with Worldbox also recently expanding Plejadaâs offering.
Cushman & Wakefield provided comprehensive support to ensure a smooth onboarding process for the new tenant and to align the MR.DIY store with the concept of the ongoing redevelopment of Plejada and its technical specifications.
âA seamless transition from a business brief to delivery is critical when leasing modernised facilities. Our PDS team coordinated technical documentation and store preparation from day one, enabling the space to be swiftly handed over to the tenant. As a result, MR.DIY can now proceed with fit-work works fully aligned with Plejadaâs new architectural vision,â says Ada Budynek, Leasing Manager, Cushman & Wakefield.
In addition, fit-out works are currently at an advanced stage within the premises leased to the brands whose arrival at Plejada was announced in February. These include a modern Xtreme Fitness Gyms club and an innovative Xtreme Kids play area. The new concepts, which will occupy key units within the modernised shopping centre, will significantly enhance Plejadaâs sports, entertainment and leisure offering, adapting it to the evolving expectations of residents of Sosnowiec and the wider region.
Plejada Sosnowiec is conveniently located at ul. Staszica 8b, providing easy access by both car and public transport. The shopping centre currently boasts the strongest retail offering in the city, featuring more than 33,000 sqm of space and around 80 retail, service, F&B and entertainment concepts, anchored by a Carrefour hypermarket.
