Large sites, developed infrastructure and strategic location gave FREDA the opportunity to quickly implement the investment project and consistently expand its activities. From 2017 to 2024, the company expanded its production capacity in Kaunas FEZ three times, creating one of the most modern production and logistics complexes in the Baltic region. Sustainability solutions have also become an important part of the project: a 10,000 m² solar power plant installed on the roofs of buildings produces about 20% of the electricity needed for warehousing activities.
Onninen, a technical wholesaler belonging to the Finnish KESKO group, established its Kaunas FEZ logistics centre in a record-breaking, just 18-month, period.
