Contera will soon undertake a complete reconstruction of the existing building for FAST ČR, which will create new modern offices and warehouse areas in the coming years. After this reconstruction the company will lease a total of 3,500 m2 of office space and more than 35,000 m2 of warehouse areas. At present, FAST ČR in Říčany employs approximately 700 people; in addition to wholesale sales in the park, it also operates the Planeo Elektro store with a surface area of about 900 m2.    

Retail units in the Říčany retail park next to Tesco, which is a part of the Contera premises, are now also fully occupied. They were leased by Jarabák, who sells gar-dening equipment, and Bůůček, a premium butcher offering meat of Czech breeds and sausages made of high-quality ingredients produced by the company itself. It will also be offering warm meals in the shop. This is already the fourth branch of this company in the Czech Republic.  

“We are delighted that we were able to bring new clients to our retail park. In addi-tion, we concluded new contracts with the current lessees Pepco, Pet Centrum, Ice-land and Teta in the spring, and an extension of the contract with Lékárna Atrium is being prepared. So the entire retail park is now occupied,” says Lucie Havlíčková, Leasing Manager of Contera.  

Other clients in Contera Park Říčany have expanded in recent months. Among them is Penta, a supplier of electro-discharge machine tools, and Spokojený pes, a company that has a central warehouse for its e-shop with pet granules in Říčany. Both companies expanded their premises by approximately 1,000 m2. Contera additionally leased an area of 2,000 m2 to the Fuchs Oil Corporation at the end of 2019.  

More than 1,500 people are employed at Contera Park Říčany, particularly from Říčany and its neighbouring towns and villages. Access to the retail park will be made much easier thanks to a completed connection from the railway station, due to which it will only take several minutes to get to the retail park on foot from the town centre. Orientation in the park will also be easier as the Municipal Council of the Town of Říčany approved the names of park streets in May. The new streets in the park have the following names: Technická, Obchodní and U Sanitasu.
