Zdjęcie - Laying of the cornerstone for the Kalinka Retail Park

On 2 December in Kalisz at the corner of Serbinowska and Młynarska Streets, the celebratory laying of the cornerstone for the construction of the Kalinka Retail Park took place.

The event was attended by representatives of the city, the local community, the investor and partner companies as well as potential and future Tenants who chose to open their stores in this location.

The laying of the cornerstone commences the stage of constructing the foundations for the new retail park. In addition to the laying of the foundation, copies of Kalisz newspapers and current notes and coins were put in a commemorative tube. The new retail park is to serve local residents while complementing the retail offer of Kalisz.

The opening is planned for June 2017 and the tenants of Kalinka include among others Piotr i Paweł, Brico Marche and Rossmann, a local pharmacy and confectionery. Talks are underway with other tenants who are interested in the offer due to the very good location of the retail park.

As stressed by the contractors and designers of "Kalinka", it is a friendly place designed for family needs and frequent shopping.

I am very pleased that after eight years of preparations it was possible to start the construction of the building whose concept during this time was modified twice. We hope that the Kalinka Retail Park will be a place that will be appreciated not only by the Tenants but above all by the residents of Kalisz. I also wish to thank all persons - designers and builders - for the efficient and quick work - Robert Faktor - Owner and Chief Executive of ANTAN Group.

The project is being carried out by Zakład Budowlano Remontowy BUDREM from Ostrów Wielkopolski. In his short statement – the President of Budrem, Mr Robert Wilczewski expressed the hope that the Kalinka Retail Park will meet not only the expectations of the customers but also the Investor who expects that the constructed building will be made in accordance with the highest standards.

Currently, we are conducting the project in line with the plan. Already in the second quarter of 2017, we will be able to invite all to a grand official opening – says Edyta Bystra, responsible for the commercialisation of the building on behalf of ANTAN Development.
