Less than a year ago, the Malaysian home improvement retail giant MR.DIY made its debut in the Polish market by opening its first Central and Eastern European logistics center at Hillwood Zgierz I. The company’s launch in the CEE region has proven to be a great success, driving further expansion. This year, MR.DIY leased the last available space in the complex, making Hillwood Zgierz I now fully leased. AXI IMMO was responsible for comprehensive services for the tenant.

MR.DIY currently operates in 13 countries and has over 4,500 stores in Asia and Europe. The company’s product range includes over 20,000 items, such as household and hardware supplies, home improvement essentials, stationery, toys, and more. So far, the MR.DIY brand has launched three stores in Poland and is currently preparing to open new locations.

Last year, MR.DIY took its first step towards expansion in Central and Eastern Europe by launching a 5,000 sqm logistics centre at Hillwood Zgierz I. This year, in response to its growing operational needs, the company expanded its facility by an additional 7,106 sqm of warehouse and office space. As a result, Hillwood Zgierz I is now fully leased, with available spaces remaining only at Hillwood Zgierz II.

“We are proud to have supported MR.DIY’s successful entry into Central and Eastern Europe by providing modern warehouse and office space. The decision to expand within our Hillwood Zgierz I park confirms that strong partnerships, responsiveness to tenants’ needs, and a shared commitment to business growth bring tangible results. We appreciate MR.DIY’s trust in our facilities, and we are confident that the additional warehouse space will contribute to achieving its business goals in the CEE region,” says Wojciech Dachniewski, Business Development Director at Hillwood Polska.

“A successful market debut and continued business growth require reliable partners. From the very beginning, our cooperation with Hillwood Polska has been excellent. We are very pleased with our choice of Hillwood Zgierz I logistics park, and our decision to expand within this strategically located complex is the best proof of that. The new space will allow us to operate even more efficiently. We believe that our long-term partnership with Hillwood Polska will further strengthen our position in the Central and Eastern European market.” – says Magdalena Nazarewicz, Business Development Director at MR.DIY Poland.

“The strategic partnership with the developer secured additional space within the Hillwood Zgierz I logistics centre. This decision enabled rapid business scaling to meet growing market demands. At the same time, the opportunity to expand within the same logistics park allowed the client to maintain cost efficiency and operational flexibility.” – Hubert Wojtera, Director, Industrial & Logistics, AXI IMMO.
