Linsan, a wholesale food supplier and distributor, is expanding its presence on the Czech market and has chosen Prologis Park Prague-Chrášťany as its new logistics base. The company will occupy the entire newest building in the park, totaling 5,437 square meters, including 333 square meters of office space.
“We are pleased to welcome Linsan to Prologis Park Prague-Chrášťany. The contract was signed in record time –within just one week after the first tour,” says Martin Čihák, Leasing and Customer Experience Manager at Prologis, adding: “This speed confirms the strong demand for high-quality, sustainable logistics space in prime locations, as well as our ability to respond quickly to customers’ needs. We believe the new facility will support Linsan’s continued growth.”
Linsan will primarily use the new premises to supply its extensive network of food retail stores across the Czech Republic. The modern warehouse facilities will enable the company to further develop its distribution activities and improve the efficiency of customer service across the market.
“Since the company was founded in 2013, we have experienced dynamic growth and continuously expanded our customer base,” says Quach Hoang Thai, Managing Director of Linsan. “The new logistics centre in close proximity to Prague will allow us to increase capacity, streamline operations and create a strong foundation for further development.”
Automation as part of strategic development
The building will be equipped with advanced automation technologies delivered through the Prologis Essentials platform, which provides customers with comprehensive support in optimizing logistics operations through turnkey solutions such as LED lighting, racking systems, material handling equipment, EV charging stations, and potential on-site solar generation.
The equipment will include an automated pallet movement solution within racking structures (UPC Shuttle system), technology enabling efficient pallet handling while minimizing manual intervention (EPS – Electric Pallet Shuttle), and a modern racking system designed to optimize storage capacity. These technologies will help maximize warehouse space utilization, increase the speed and accuracy of goods handling, and support long-term operational efficiency.
“Automation plays a crucial role in the food distribution segment in terms of speed, accuracy and reliability of deliveries,” says Vojtěch Štěpnička, Essentials Solutions Manager at Prologis. “Every solution we design is based on a detailed analysis of the customer’s operational needs. In the case of Linsan, we developed a technological concept that meets its current requirements while also creating room for future growth.”
Sustainability at the core of the building
The building at Prologis Park Prague-Chrášťany was designed in line with Prologis’ long-term commitment to sustainability. It is equipped with heat pumps that provide heating for both warehouse and office spaces without reliance on natural gas, as well as modern LED lighting with intelligent sensors.
The roof is prepared for the installation of photovoltaic panels, and the building uses an intelligent metering system enabling continuous monitoring and optimization of energy consumption. The facility was developed using BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology and has achieved BREEAM certification.
These features support a responsible approach to operations and contribute to long-term environmental efficiency.
Prime location with excellent accessibility
Prologis Park Prague-Chrášťany is located close to the D5 motorway, providing fast connections to major transport routes. Prague city centre is approximately a 25-minute drive away (13 km), while Václav Havel Airport Prague is just 6 km from the site. The location offers efficient connections for both domestic and international distribution.
Its strategic position enables efficient distribution within Prague and across other regions of the Czech Republic and provides a strong base for the long-term development of Linsan’s logistics operations.
