GLP has leased a 43,000 sqm unit at Sziget Logistics Center to Fiege Group, a leading European logistics company that specializes in efficient supply chain solutions, according to a press release sent to the Budapest Business Journal.

The center will introduce the GLP Design Standard to the Hungarian market.

It will also have a maximum floor load of 7 tons/SQ M, enabling the use heavy vehicles or machinery.
István Kerekes, country manager of GLP Hungary said, “Sziget Logistics Center is set to raise the bar in terms of technical specifications in the Hungarian warehouse market. We are happy that Fiege Group, a new addition to GLP’s customer community, will be the first to benefit from our best-in-class technical features. As part of our growth strategy in the region, we are committed to supporting the expansion of current and future customers through developing further high-quality logistics assets in key locations across the country.”
