The Kutno subzone, which is one of 45 subzones belonging to the Łódź Special Economic Zone, was established in 2001 and covers a total area of ​​approximately 130 ha. Until June 2018, the subzone was a separate area within the city, where entrepreneurs could start operating on preferential terms and use state aid. In connection with the adoption of the Act of May 10, 2018 on supporting new investments (the Act came into force on June 30, 2018), public aid for new investment projects is granted throughout the territory of the Republic of Poland. In other words, the investment can be located in any part of the city.

The industrial district, where most of the companies in the Kutno Subzone are located, is located in the vicinity of the national road No. 92 (former E30), the A1 motorway (Kutno East Junction at a distance of 1.6 km) as well as the E20 railway main and siding network. Over the last few years, the City of Kutno has invested over PLN 33 million in its development. The vast majority of this amount was allocated directly to the subzone.

Team help

  • we work closely with local authorities to improve the course of the investment process

  • we organize annual meetings integrating Investors

As part of the support in the implementation of investments, the employees of the Lodz Special Economic Zone facilitate cooperation with network operators, e.g. gas or energy networks, and other institutions and business entities.
