WDP to develop €22 million distribution centre near Bucharest

Business Forum
WDP has launched development of a 32,000 sqm distribution centre in WDP Park Bucharest – Ștefănești for FAN Courier Group, one of Romania's leading courier and logistics operators. The €22 million investment will be realised by deploying WDP's landbank in North Bucharest, with construction beginning in early 2026 and delivery scheduled later that year.

The site will be leased on a long-term basis under a fixed 10-year triple-net contract. FAN Courier Group, already a WDP client in Romania (Timișoara), further strengthens its partnership with WDP through this new project. The facility will support the client's parcel operations and consolidate Ștefănești's role as a logistics hub with direct links to the capital and surrounding regions.

"With this project, WDP strengthens its relationship with FAN Courier Group and expands its presence in North Bucharest. The development is fully aligned with WDP's cluster strategy and benefits from an optimal location and connectivity. With this expansion, the first phase of the park is now fully built-out, underlining the sustained demand for logistics space," said Jeroen Biermans, WDP's Country Manager Romania.

With more than 400,000 sqm of lettable area, WDP Park Bucharest – Ștefănești has grown in less than a decade into the largest cluster in the WDP portfolio. The park offers small units and big box distribution centres, anchored by a diversified client base including retailers such as Decathlon, Auchan and LPP, alongside industrial suppliers.

The park features Romania's largest biodiversity project, with more than 12 MWp of solar panels, 10,000 trees and 5,000 shrubs covering more than 150,000 sqm. WDP is now focusing on further cluster expansion around Bucharest with new land, with an additional 30,000 sqm of expansion potential earmarked for existing clients within the current park.
