Panattoni Europe named Developer of the Decade!

Panattoni Europe, the leader in the warehouse space sector in Poland, was named Developer of the Decade winning three prizes at the prestigious Eurobuild Awards. According to the customers, the best warehouse in Poland is Panattoni Park Mysłowice. This was confirmed by the jury comprising leading professionals from the warehouse space sector, granting two awards to Panattoni Europe: "Best Warehouse in Poland" for Panattoni Park Mysłowice and "Warehouse Developer of the Decade" for the achievements and contribution to the market development in Poland. 

The "Eurobuild Awards" competition is a unique initiative which brings together top specialists and leading companies involved in the real estate market, but also gives the tenants themselves an opportunity to evaluate individual investments. The awards are divided into two categories - "Market Awards" selected by a jury and "Tenant Awards" decided by users of the facilities on the basis of a market survey. In this year's first edition of the competition the survey was conducted by Millward Brown, and the awards ceremony took place on 8 December 2010 at the Hilton Hotel in Warsaw. 

Best warehouse in Poland - customers chose Panattoni Park Mysłowice 
According to warehouse space tenants, the "Best Warehouse in Poland" is Panattoni Park Mysłowice. The winning park is an exceptional investment in the developer's portfolio and is one of the biggest parks in Poland, with planned total space of nearly 190 thousand square metres. The facilities' customers include: Intermarché, DPD, Coca-Cola, Rohlig, Inter Cars, Manuli Hydraulics, Magneti Mirelli, PartnerTech and CAT.  
The tenants of Panattoni Park Mysłowice gave the investment top marks in the survey conducted by Millward Brown - in six categories: location and accessibility of the park both by public transport and by car, office space at the park, effectiveness of the development plan and its amendability, facility management, rental fees compared to the size, type and quality of the space leased and transparency of service charges. 

The market recognized Panattoni Europe 
The jury, comprising consultants and agents, lawyers, bankers and engineers, granted two awards to Panattoni Europe. The first one is "Warehouse Developer of the Decade", in recognition of Panattoni Europe's contribution to the development of the Polish market in 2000-2010. Taking into account that the developer only launched its operations in Poland in 2005, company development over as little as 5 years was remarkably dynamic. 

The other award is for the "Best Warehouse in Poland" awarded to Panattoni Park Mysłowice. The award was selected through an opinion poll and the jury's vote on the best project from among those which were rated best in the questionnaire conducted by Millward Brown among the tenants of the biggest warehousing projects across Poland. 

Robert Dobrzycki, Managing Partner for Central and Eastern Europe, said: "I admit I did not even dream about winning three awards in such a prestigious competition. Each of them is special and exceptional, but I think they should be perceived holistically - as a confirmation of the determined and professional approach of the Panattoni Europe team, both when executing new projects and ensuring satisfaction of all customers".
