Accolade closes 2025 with another financing – Szczecin project secures EUR 42 million loan
At the end of 2025, Accolade completed another bank financing transaction on the Polish warehouse market, confirming the company’s strong activity in this area over the past year. The project developed in Szczecin (Park Szczecin Trzebusz) secured a EUR 42 million loan from BNP Paribas Bank Polska. As part of the first phase of the investment, over 25,500 sqm of modern industrial space is being delivered. The facility has already been fully leased to two tenants, with construction scheduled for completion in spring 2026.
This transaction represents another financing secured by Accolade in recent months, following earlier agreements concluded with both domestic and international banks. It confirms the consistent execution of the investor’s strategy, focused on the long-term development of warehouse projects in regional locations, as well as the continued confidence of financial institutions in this asset class.
“This financing confirms not only the attractiveness of the project itself, but also the growing role of Szczecin as a mature and stable logistics hub on the western map of Poland. It is also another example of the long-term cooperation between Accolade and BNP Paribas Bank Polska, based on a shared understanding of the specifics of warehouse projects and high investment standards. For banks today, key factors include location, project scale, and long-term operational potential, including compliance with ESG requirements. The Szczecin project is being developed in line with sustainable development principles, with a strong focus on energy efficiency, carbon footprint reduction, and a high-quality working environment. Closing this transaction once again confirms the banking sector’s trust in Accolade’s business model and our consistently implemented strategy of responsible growth,” says Jakub Leszczyński, Transaction Director at Accolade.
Park Szczecin Trzebusz: the next stage of Accolade’s growth in Szczecin
Szczecin is one of Accolade’s first markets in Poland and remains a strategic location within the company’s portfolio, due to its proximity to the seaport and the German border, as well as its role in servicing Western European and Scandinavian markets. In the Szczecin region, Accolade has developed one of the largest warehouse clusters in its Polish portfolio over recent years, currently comprising nearly 400,000 sqm of modern space across several industrial parks. The scale of this presence and the consistent development of subsequent project phases confirm the maturity of this location and its lasting logistics importance, both from the perspective of tenants and financial institutions.
The current investment involves the first phase of a complex that will ultimately offer nearly 100,000 sqm of warehouse space. Within this phase, delivered as Park Szczecin Trzebusz, over 25,500 sqm of modern warehouse space is being developed and has already been fully leased to two tenants. Construction is scheduled to be completed in spring 2026.
“Financing this investment is a natural continuation of the long-standing cooperation between BNP Paribas Bank Polska and Accolade, built on shared values and a responsible approach to sustainable development. It is also another project in the Szczecin region in which we are involved as a bank, supporting investments of strategic importance for the region. The project stands out for its high quality and meets ambitious environmental standards, particularly in terms of energy efficiency. We are pleased to support Accolade in delivering an investment that contributes to the development of modern logistics and industrial infrastructure and is fully aligned with BNP Paribas’ sustainable finance strategy,” says Elżbieta Chmielowska, BNP Paribas Bank Polska S.A.
The transaction confirms that despite the selective approach of financial institutions to new investments, warehouse projects with strong location fundamentals and solid business foundations remain attractive to lenders
