Mercator Medical is the first tenant at 7R Park Gdańsk IV
Medical Mercator Medical S.A. is one of the largest players in Poland and worldwide, selling products to nearly 70 countries. At 7R Park Gdańsk IV, which spans 42,000 square meters, the company will open its first dedicated distribution centre covering 13,000 square meters.
We have analysed various scenarios related to our current logistics operations and decided to change the strategy of Mercator Medical S.A. in this regard. We aim to have greater independence and control over the distribution process, which in turn will optimize costs and improve operational efficiency. Our long-term strategy includes further expanding our product range and increasing turnover. The new warehouse with significant potential supports this direction and enables us to achieve our set goals. Aware of our shared concern for sustainable development, including environmental protection, we sought a facility with the highest possible standards in this area — one of the key selection criteria. We face many exciting challenges associated with implementing this project, which we approach with great enthusiasm.

Logistics Director, Mercator Medical Group
7R Park Gdańsk IV is located in Barniewice, 2.5 km from the S6 Tricity Metropolitan Bypass, and 18 km from the DTC container terminal in Gdańsk. The proximity of the ports in Gdańsk and Gdynia, as well as the Lech Wałęsa Airport with its cargo terminal located 4 km away, facilitates international trade and transport.
7R Park Gdańsk IV is equipped with solutions that will provide tenants with real savings in the form of lower energy costs. This is thanks to the use of photovoltaic panels, a DALI lighting control system, and thoughtful use of natural daylight in unloading areas.
Responsible design considers the needs of both tenants and the natural environment. 7R Park Gdańsk IV is an excellent example of this. In line with the decarbonization strategy implemented by 7R, the warehouse has been designed to the highest standards and ESG criteria to serve tenants well for many years.

The facility will also feature green areas that support the biodiversity of flora and fauna. For motorists, there will be electric vehicle charging stations. All these eco-friendly aspects qualify the warehouse for a BREEAM certification at the Excellent level.
Mercator Medical S.A. was represented in the negotiations by advisors from AXI Immo.
Good relationships, mutual understanding, and excellent knowledge of the local market proved to be crucial in the process of finding new warehouse space for the Mercator Medical Group. The client had previously utilized logistics services in the region but decided to open its own distribution centre during financial analyses and development planning. This is another Krakow-based client who trusted AXI IMMO structures and received the highest level of service thanks to interregional cooperation.
