LX Pantos has acquired a large logistics center in Poland. The deal strengthens its footprint in Europe and expands support for Korean companies operating in the region.
The acquisition forms part of a public-private partnership with the Korea Overseas Infrastructure & Urban Development Corporation (KIND) and the PIS No. 2 Fund. The transaction is valued at around KRW 216 billion. The site covers a total floor area of 109,000 square metres.
The facility is located in Katowice, southern Poland. It includes five newly built buildings. Full operations will start in the first half of 2026. Several global and local companies have already signed leases.
LX Pantos secured financing from the Korea Ocean Business Corporation. This ensures stable funding for the project.
Katowice sits at a key logistics crossroads in Europe. It links the east-west corridor between Germany, Poland and Ukraine. It also connects the north-south route between Northern and Southern Europe.
The site offers direct access to the A4 and A1 highways. It also benefits from rail and airport links. This supports intermodal transport operations.
LX Pantos plans to develop the site into an Eastern European logistics hub. The center will serve industries such as automotive parts, consumer goods and home appliances. It will also support growing demand across neighbouring markets.
The company expects the hub to support future reconstruction flows into Ukraine. Its location makes it suitable as a forward logistics base once rebuilding begins.
Poland remains one of the EU’s fastest-growing logistics markets. It offers a large workforce and strong transport connectivity. The Silesia region has become a major industrial cluster for automotive, electronics, machinery and chemicals.
Investment from Korean companies continues to rise. Key sectors include electric vehicles, batteries and automotive components.
Lee Yong-ho, Global CEO of LX Pantos, said the deal marks a strategic step for the company.
“The Katowice Logistics Center allows us to connect logistics flows across Europe,” he said. “We will accelerate our European expansion and strengthen support for Korean companies in the region.”
