1 Industrial & Logistics Lublin is the main logistics centre for the eastern border of the European Union

2 Industrial & Logistics Lublin's assets, such as its location and infrastructure, will allow it to become the primary logistics centre for the eastern border of the EU. It owes this to its favourable location at the junction of transport routes heading from the Baltic states to the Balkans, and from Western Europe to Ukraine and Russia. An additional advantage is the transport network being constantly developed as well as excellent access to investment resources. High-flow-rate expressways surround Lublin. The railway infrastructure allows for transporting goods to Eastern Europe as well as to Baltic seaports, and Lublin airport offers freight transhipment. 1 Invest in Lublin Moreover, the city is abundant with investment areas perfect for logistics, as well as industrial developers, and local government institutions provide full support to entrepreneurs during the entire investment process. Lublin is proud of its vast pool of highly qualified employees, graduates of such universities as the Lublin University of Technology and the Technical School of Transport and Communication. What proves that the city offers great opportunities for industrial developers operating in the logistics sector is the fact that key players in the sector located their businesses here.

6 Mełgiewska Logistics Centre - the symbol of how dynamically logistics in Lublin develops Only in five years of operation, Mełgiewska Logistics Centre tripled their warehouse space and obtained access to a railway siding, as the only logistics centre in Lublin. 5 Invest in Lublin Stanisław Pawłowski, the owner of Pawtrans transport company, identified the unexplored potential of logistics in Lublin. He built an A-class warehouse - one of the first buildings of this type in the city. This is how Mełgiewska Logistics Centre was founded. The company did not have to wait long to serve its first customers interested in renting the warehouse space being offered. They were attracted not only by the convenient location of the centre, which is close to the expressway and the airport but also by our open-minded and customer-centric approach. For example, one of the buildings was designed and built to meet the expectations and needs of its current user, an operator of spedition services. The potential of the local logistics market allowed us to expand and move to the building of a former car factory paint shop. The facility was suitable for storage and production, provided access to truck scales and a railway siding, which we are planning to use for offering transhipment services to third parties.

7 Mełgiewska Logistics Centre - the symbol of how dynamically logistics in Lublin develops An excellent location at the junction of transportation routes, high-quality transport infrastructure in and around the city and access to the airport make Lublin an excellent source of expansion opportunities for the logistics industry. This is proven not only by a rapid increase in the number of warehousing and industrial facilities being available in the city but also by growing interest of prospective customers who will be able to recruit highly-qualified personnel graduating from top universities. Additionally, each investor will be provided with the professional support offered by members of staff of the municipal government administration. Expansion of industrial enterprises depends on logistics services and, thus, their dynamic growth shall continue to provide expansion opportunities for logistics centres situated in Lublin.
