WHY SILESIA?
12,331 km2
4,714,982 inhabitants
Silesia is the most important industrial region, located in the southern part of Poland. It has got excellent connections with the transeuropean transport network. It is the most industrialised and urbanised region in Poland. The high urbanisation rate is evidenced by the value of almost 79% of the population inhabiting the region’s 71 cities and towns. Such a large population concentration in the relatively small area forms the huge potential sales market of consumable goods. 3
