Bonami published its business results for last year, which, despite complications in the form of the global pandemic COVID-19, was marked by growing sales and profits.

They relied on ecological industrial real estate and, according to the Financial Times, were the fastest-growing company in the Czech Republic in 2019. The founder of Accolade, Milan Kratina, revealed in an interview how the importance of modern halls was underlined by the pandemic. Fast production or fast delivery of goods depends on many factors, but one of them is the quality of the production hall or warehouse. The importance of industrial buildings is also underlined by situations such as the Covid-19 or Brexit pandemic, e.g. for changes at borders. In such situations, not only e-commerce companies but also food chains and manufacturing companies are aware of the importance of logistics real estate.
Since 2011, the Czech investment company Accolade has been focusing on the preparation and lease of industrial premises. The properties that make up its portfolio and that they offer for rent are significantly different from those of their competitors and have found their customers on the markets in the Czech Republic, Poland, and Germany, and one of them is also located in Slovakia - Košice. Now the Accolade Fund is coming to our market and offers Slovak investors the opportunity to benefit from the growth of e-commerce and logistics. At the same time, an investment horizon of 5 years and a minimum investment of EUR 75,000 must be taken into account.
Behind the birth of Accolade is Milan Kratina, who, while studying at university, met with the preparation of land for the construction of the industrial real estate. He has not set out in this area and has built a company that has become one of the influential players in the industrial infrastructure market in Europe.
