Originally, plans were in place to build a logistics centre at the factory site currently under construction. However, late last year, a decision shift occurred, and the Hillwood logistics hall is now preparing to meet Footprint's production needs.

Partial production will begin in June 2024. Footprint Poland is a company with capital from the United States and is headquartered in Warsaw.
