Good climate for investments, business development and entrepreneurship

The city offers a stable investment environment complete with skilled human resources and consistent business-development/entrepreneurial opportunities. In addition, Bydgoszcz boasts a strong academic centre that generates top talent. The city offers competitive labor costs, which, in combination with low attrition rates sets it apart from other, larger BPO cities in Poland. We have built our European business around the talented individuals and business-friendly culture of Bydgoszcz, placing key management staff at this location. It is a great place to do business.

The support from BARR allowed us to quickly start the core operations for the branch in Bydgoszcz

Starting the business in Bydgoszcz in 2016, Cybercom Poland Sp. z o. o. received professional support from the Bydgoszcz Regional Development Agency Sp. z o. o. Substantive preparation from BARR in the form of the provision of all the necessary information when the company was opening the new branch in Bydgoszcz was at the highest level. We would like to emphasise that the team of Mrs Edyta Wiwatowska has been creatively supporting the initiatives of our company, allowing us to realise our goals more effectively. The support from BARR allowed us to quickly start the core operations for the branch in Bydgoszcz – the realisation of innovative projects in Automotive, Telecom R&D, Digitalisation and loT sectors. We wish all Polish cities to pride on people as involved in the creation of the investment climate as we experienced in the case of cooperation between BARR and Cybercom Poland Sp. z o. o.

Young and well-educated society and the fastest decline of unemployment in Poland

Arriving at the decision about developing logistics parks, we take the utmost care of choosing the location, which enables us to build objects that consider the needs of various tenants who look either for typical storage facility or production halls. Additionally to the location, there are more aspects of great importance such as road system, its development plans and personnel availability. These parameters where taken under thorough scrutiny while making decision about choosing Bydgoszcz as the location for our investment. The result of our observations was that the rapidly developing City of Bydgoszcz lacks production halls of a high standard. Industrial real estates built by Waimea Holding S.A. allow companies to grow and raise the quality and culture of work. In recent years, we have also observed a considerable development of small enterprises, which require smaller offices with access to small storage areas at the beginning of their activity. Waimea Logistic Park Bydgoszcz is being created in response to the market demands of the City of Bydgoszcz. In the initial stage of the investment there is a SBU (Small Business Units) hall to be built with the area of 9.072 sq m. It will provide warehouses and offices for micro and small entrepreneurs, startups and all the companies that need smaller storage facilities to operate. The minimum available warehouse units will have an area of 650 sq m with office and social areas of 60 sq m. The second hall, with the area of 16.200 sq m2, is designed for manufacturers and logistics operators dealing with cross-docking. The production and logistics centre of 90.000 sq m is being developed in a 19 hectare area in the south-eastern part of Bydgoszcz. The property has good access to S10 express road and A1 highway. The public transport availability is another asset of the area, which ensures convenient access to the workplace for the personnel. The investment is located in a rapidly developing city, which records more and more intense economic activity. Well-developed communication infrastructure, international airport and modern railway stations are representative marks and pride of the City. It’s hard to ignore favourable demographic indicators – young and well-educated society and the fastest decline of unemployment in Poland. Bydgoszcz responds to the demands of the market and the requirements of developers, making the City a very attractive place for investors.
