Why Augustów?
Augustów is located in the north-eastern part of Poland, in the Podlaskie Voivodeship, in the area of “Green Lungs of Poland”, between the Wigry and Biebrza National Parks. The city is surrounded by numerous lakes, mostly connected by the Augustów Canal.
Augustów is the 48th city in Poland in terms of area – 80.90 km2 of space provides great opportunities for economic development among greenery, lakes and untouched nature.
The undoubted advantages of Augustów include the diversified economic structure. This is due to the strongly accentuated industrial profile of the city with a developed public service sector and the presence of a tourist function, including a sanatorium. The city is also the main tourist center of Podlaskie Voivodeship and at the same time one of several dozen urban centers in the country with the highest intensity of tourist traffic.
Augustów is a great place to lead a healthy lifestyle close to nature – forest bicycle paths, great natural conditions for swimming, canoeing, water and cross-country skiing and horse riding make it a great place to live and relax. Each employee will be able to regenerate his strength in the surroundings of forests and lakes – even the hardest day at work will be rewarded with the charms of nature!
The municipal government is trying to create the best climate for business development in Augustów. Low taxes, constant development of technical and social infrastructure and a high level of education are the priorities of investor-friendly activities. Entrepreneurs coming to Augustów can count on full support at every stage of the investment process – from purchasing plots, through infrastructure and obtaining the necessary permits, to starting production and recruiting employees.
“Augustów is a good place to invest,” says Mayor Mirosław Karolczuk. “A few years ago, we divided the city into districts – thanks to this, we freed ourselves from the strict regulations of the law on health resorts, which inhibited the economic potential. Today, we can boast about the start of investment processes of our entrepreneurs who have been waiting for years for the possibility of developing their companies in Augustów, as well as invite new investors to this group. The Augustów Economic Activity Zone is primarily a ready, advanced infrastructure, great location and a good atmosphere for investing in a dynamically developing city. I encourage you to become interested in our real estate sale offer and take part in tenders, ”explains the Mayor.
