MARKET ENTRY · FOREIGN MANUFACTURERS
Market Entry Poland - Foreign Manufacturers
Foreign manufacturers expanding their supply chain to Poland - setting up a production plant, assembly line or logistics base - need a local partner who understands both the logistics market and the specifics of manufacturing operations. Vologis provides end-to-end support: from site selection and warehouse advisory through independent operator selection to logistics process setup.
Setting up a logistics base in a new country requires local knowledge and objectivity
Foreign manufacturers often face a choice between large logistics operators offering standardised services at premium prices, and a local market they don't know well enough to navigate independently. Without a local advisor, they overpay, choose suboptimal locations or miss operators who could better serve their specific manufacturing logistics requirements.

FAQ - frequently asked questions
Why Poland as a manufacturing or logistics location?
Poland offers competitive labour costs, a central EU location, well-developed logistics infrastructure, access to a large domestic market and proximity to major European markets. For manufacturers nearshoring from Western Europe, Poland is one of the most attractive destinations in the EU.
What makes manufacturing logistics different from standard warehousing?
Manufacturing logistics requires synchronisation with production schedules, just-in-time supply, component traceability and often specific certifications (GDP, ADR, automotive standards). We select operators and locations that meet these specific requirements, not just standard storage.
Do you support the full market entry process?
Yes. We support the full process from initial site analysis through warehouse and operator selection, lease negotiation and logistics process setup. We act as your local logistics partner throughout the entire market entry, providing continuity and local knowledge at every stage.
