ProLogis (NYSE: PLD), the world's largest owner, manager and developer of distribution facilities, has announced it has leased 19,600 m² of warehouse space in Slovakia to NAY Elektrodom, one of the leading electronics distributors and wholesalers in the country.
NAY Elektrodom will occupy a new facility under construction at ProLogis Park Bratislava, a major distribution park being developed 24 kilometers northeast of Bratislava. The company plans to use the facility as a regional distribution center, serving its 22 superstores in 20 cities throughout Slovakia.

We are seeing strong activity at all of our parks in Slovakia, and anticipate interest from the region's suppliers, retailers and third-party logistics providers will continue to expand as trade, job and consumer spending increases."
