A Trump Card of the City

Undoubtedly, one of the most important "trump cards" that Koszalin could offer is commissioning of the new "Koszalin" complex of the Slupsk Special Economic Zone, in which attractive and preferential conditions for foreign investors will be created.

Koszalin is an important business centre in the Region of Central Pomerania, as well as a significant cultural and academic centre.

Entrepreneurs conducting their business activity in the area of the "Koszalin" complex will take advantage of public assistance in form of real property tax exemption and income tax exemption by virtue of investment implementation or creation of new places ofwork.

Irrespective of conditions, Koszalin has large reserve of land for buildings intended for industrial, services and housing purposes, as well as storage places, stocking yards, fair, exhibition and commercial centres.

Koszalin is regarded as a modern municipal centre characterised by good technical infrastructure satisfying the needs of its inhabitants and entre-preneurs. The city is located on the transit route of international importance connecting Berlin and Kaliningrad and on the national road connecting Koszalin with the South of Poland. Such favourable location is undoubtedly one of the factors contributing to economic development of the city.

One of the priorities of the city authorities is intensive development of institutions of higher education. The Technical University of Koszalin with its over 18 thousands students, is known for its longest academic traditions. Among our strengths one will find well educated and prepared labour force ready for co-operation.

Other strong points of the city are favourable conditions for development of tourism sector. The city is situated in one of the most attractive touristic regions of Poland, close to the Baltic Sea with lakes and rivers and large forest complexes excellent for fishing, angling and hunting.
