Poland Not only for horses

Corporate social responsibility
Panattoni BTS and Commercecon together support the establishment of the second Centaurus Foundation centre in Poland to help horses and other animals.

The Centaurus Foundation rescues horses destined for slaughter from breeding, sporting and leisure centres as well as farms and private stables, including horses that pull tourist carriages. Over the 16 years since its establishment, the charity has given a second chance to almost 1,500 horses, 1,000 dogs and hundreds of cats and other creatures. Panattoni BTS has supported the Centaurus Foundation for many years. As part of its support, the developer invited general contractor Commercecon to help out and the company has taken on a broad range of construction tasks as part of the establishment of the Bezpieczna Przystań centre in Modlimowo.

The life of every rescued animal is proof that the foundation's work is of huge importance, so I took the decision to support Centaurus in its selection of contractors for the development of its new centre. Together with Commercecon, we have already developed many projects, and I know the people in the company to not only be fantastic professionals but also individuals with large hearts. For this reason, inviting the company to be the general contractor seemed to me to be completely natural.
Marek Foryński, the managing director of Panattoni BTS

Commercecon is a general contractor for industrial property projects and the company has already completed over 280 developments both in Poland and abroad. The company is also well-known for its sporting charity and community work. In Modlimowo Commercecon fenced in a vast plot of over 14 hectares in its entirety by placing over 4,800m of fencing with safety netting and a mesh fence of 8,800m. The company has also taken on the preparation work for the construction of the new building on the site of the centre.
