Scallier has begun commercialisation of a retail park to be developed in Ruda Śląska-Kochlowice on Józefa Piłsudskiego Street.
The project is being developed by Merkury and is scheduled to open in spring 2028.
The scheme will offer approximately 6,580 sqm of leasable space and 111 parking spaces, on a site of more than one hectare surrounded by single-family and multi-family residential buildings.
The park is located near the A4 motorway and 2 km from the Drogowa Trasa Średnicowa (DTŚ), a key transport corridor of the Upper Silesian-Zagłębie Metropolis, providing connections to Katowice, Chorzów, Zabrze and Gliwice, as well as to various districts of Ruda Śląska.
The compact format allows individual units to be tailored to tenants' requirements. Kochlowice, with a population of around 30,000, is one of the largest districts of Ruda Śląska and borders Katowice, Chorzów and Mikołów.

Anna Wojciechowska, Senior Leasing Manager at Scallier, said the retail property market, and the retail park segment in particular, remains in a favourable investment phase with significant growth potential, underpinned by Poland's sound economic fundamentals and growing retail sales, which are drawing new brands and discount chains seeking cost-efficient, well-located retail space.
She added that retail parks remain one of the most highly valued investment segments, with the first half of 2026 seeing a clear return of capital to the retail property market, where transaction values exceeded the total recorded for all of 2025 and posted the segment's highest first-half investment volume in eight years.
