<\/span><\/h2>\nOver the last year, eight new shopping centres have opened in the eight largest agglomerations, and the same number have been expanded. Their total area was over 240,000 sq m of leasable space. Taking into account just the last six months, supply amounted to over 130,000 sq m.<\/p>\n
The largest, both in terms of the number of centres and their area, are the markets of the Warsaw agglomeration (52 centres with a total area of over 1.7 million sq m) and Upper Silesia (49 centres, over 1.2 million sq m), while the smallest is Szczecin (305,000 sq m in 11 centres). The highest saturation of shopping centre space was recorded in Wroc\u0142aw (885 sq m\/1000 inhabitants) and Pozna\u0144 (857 sq m\/1000 inhabitants).<\/p>\n
Re-commercialisations and renegotiations in the lead<\/strong><\/p>\nDue to the limited development activity in the largest agglomerations, the demand structure is dominated by re-commercialisations and renegotiations of contracts. The vacancy rate in the largest cities remains at an average level of 3.8%, with the highest vacancy rate in \u0141\u00f3d\u017a (6.6%) and the lowest in Szczecin (1.0%).<\/p>\n
2018-2019 in the retail market is the time of non-food discounts. Rapid expansion can be observed both among newcomers and well-established operators such as Kik, Dealz and Pepco.<\/p>\n
In connection with the boom in the housing market, we are observing the development of operators from the all-inclusive household sector (IKEA, Komfort, Jysk, Home&You, Duka). Fitness club chains are also still growing. This is illustrated by the example of Pozna\u0144, where in the period from July 2018 to June 2019 five companies signed agreements in shopping centres. Cinemas as well as entertainment and education centres are also opening up.<\/p>\n
Poland is becoming an attractive country for budget brands, which is can be seen by the announced entries of Primark (Galeria M\u0142ociny in Warsaw), Monki (Galeria Katowicka, Bonarka in Krak\u00f3w) and Weekday (Elektrownia Powi\u015ble in Warsaw).<\/p>\n
<\/span>Incentive packages for strategic tenants<\/span><\/h2>\nRents in the largest agglomerations remain stable, with an upward trend for the best units in prime shopping centres. Greater flexibility in rental conditions is becoming a market practice, especially in the case of secondary locations. Tenants of strategic importance for a centre are offered attractive packages, which can include participation in the costs of space arrangement, lease based only on turnover, shorter lease periods, temporary reductions and freezing of operating costs.<\/p>\n
New legal regulations may cause changes in rental conditions in the near future.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe introduction of the Sunday trading ban has strengthened dominant centres and reduced the number of visitors to secondary facilities. Another factor that may have an impact on the Polish retail market is the likely entry into force of a new \u2018hypermarket\u2019 retail sales tax,\u201d says Katarzyna Michnikowska<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The shopping centre market in the largest Polish agglomerations is mature and well developed.
