Sweet Gallery, the owner of gastronomic franchise points such as Lodolandia & Kołacz na Okrągło, SiGelato and Bafra Kebab, has signed a lease agreement for nearly 1,100 sqm of space at SEGRO Business Park Warsaw, Okęcie. The space will be used to store components for the production of, among others, ice cream, waffles, and sauces. SEGRO Business Park Warsaw Okęcie is currently fully leased.
Sweet Gallery is a company that owns several gastronomic franchise chains. It is one of the largest players in the mobile gastronomy sector in Poland. It also operates abroad: in Romania, Germany, Austria, Great Britain, and Slovakia. The company cooperates with global retail chains, locating its sales points, among others, at shopping centers and retail parks. These are external, outdoor points, and sales take place from a "safe window" in a take-away format. The new warehouse location in Warsaw will allow Sweet Gallery to further develop its sales points and will support the plan to diversify its gastronomic offer.
"Despite the pandemic, we are not slowing down, and in 2021 we opened over 150 points in Poland, and our expansion plans for this year are very ambitious. To be able to continue developing, we were looking for a trusted partner, thanks to whom we will be able to continue expanding the group of franchisees across the country. We chose SEGRO Business Park Warsaw, Okęcie due to its extremely convenient location, allowing us to effectively manage logistics. We are happy about the new opportunities that this cooperation will bring us and we look forward to long-term relationships in terms of supporting the Sweet Gallery brands and our franchisees" – says Katarzyna Krzemińska, Malon, Marketing & PR Manager, Sweet Gallery.
"SEGRO Business Park Warsaw, Okęcie attracts great interest from clients and is currently fully leased. This does not surprise us, because it is located in one of the most attractive locations in Poland, only 20 minutes from the center of Warsaw and a short distance from the airport" – adds Waldemar Witczak, Regional Director of SEGRO. – "We hope that our modern warehouse space will serve the Sweet Gallery company in realizing its ambitious development plans, both on the domestic and European market."
