April the 18th, 2023 - RC Europe has chosen the Croatian company FACIES to construct a brand new gigantic logistics centre, RC Zone Samobor, worth 75 million euros.

As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, the Czech investor RC Europe has announced the end of its tender for the construction contractor for the RC Zone Samobor logistics park in the wider Bobovica economic zone. It has chosen the Croatian company FACIES, which has its headquarters in Strmec.

Earlier on, they completed the construction of the access road and relocated the main sewage line, as well as the overhead power line - all of which were prerequisites for the start of construction. In addition to that, at the end of last year, they obtained a building permit for this future green investment worth a massive 75 million euros.

"We're successfully continuing with our RC Zone Samobor logistics park project, which will represent a good example of green and sustainable construction within the logistics segment here in the Republic of Croatia. Alongside a local partner, the reputable construction Croatian company FACIES, with its many years of experience working on demanding projects, we're now one step closer to realising this investment, which, with 86,000 m2 of storage space will surely meet the needs of our future tenants,'' said Marko Vitelj, the country manager for Croatia of RC Europe.

This large infrastructure project will also contribute to the quality of life of the local community, not only through the creation of hundreds of different kinds of jobs, but also through the development of better transport infrastructure. For example, the constructed access road, roundabout, public car park and access bridge to the park are all important for the residents and visitors of Samobor and its surroundings, as it will relieve traffic in the more populated areas and facilitate access to the Bobovica business zone.

The Croatian company FACIES, which has been successfully operating for more than twenty years now, and which has been selected as the main contractor for the future RC Zone Samobor, will make a very significant contribution to the realisation of the investment indeed.

"It was with great pleasure that we received the news that another large and significant investor in the economic development of our region has chosen FACIES. We'll justify the trust given to us with our quality and knowledge and successfully realise this commendable project,'' said Marinko Mandic, the deputy director of the Croatian company FACIES.

The future RC Zone Samobor will boast more than 86,000 m² of storage space, with a net height of 12 metres, suitable for logistics as well as for various production activities. The location of this modern warehouse centre is strategically extremely favourable - it is located near neighbouring Slovenia and Western European roads, as well as the exit to the Croatian highway A3, which is ideal for trade operations and logistics.
