What is a commercial premises?
According to the law: "a commercial premises is a part of a building containing one room or a set of rooms, separated by permanent building partitions, or the entire building, other than an apartment, technical or utility room." This definition was included in the Regulation of the Minister of Infrastructure of April 12, 2002 on the technical conditions to be met by buildings and their location.
To properly choose a property for your business, you need to know the technical conditions required by law. The regulation itself will not be sufficient, there are regulations intended for specific industries regarding sanitary and fire safety reasons, as well as the layout of rooms.
Types of commercial premises
Commercial premises are divided according to their purpose. The largest group in this classification are buildings and rooms intended for business activities:
· commercial and service buildings and premises – this group includes, among others: shops, restaurants, offices, beauty salons, pharmacies,
· buildings and office spaces,
· buildings and production rooms - this group includes production halls and warehouse spaces,
· short-term accommodation buildings and rooms - this type applies to the broadly understood hotel industry, this group includes: hotels, hostels, motels, guesthouses and apartments and apartments for short-term rental,
· institutional, cultural, sports buildings and rooms and other similar facilities - this type appeared at the end of the list for a reason, because they are generally public buildings - such as offices, schools, courts, community centers, theaters, as well as arenas and sports halls.
Types of commercial premises and their attractive location
The city center will be an ideal location for shops, pharmacies and beauty salons. Shops located in close proximity - although they may constitute competition - ensure a natural flow of customers. An almost identical situation applies to commercial premises in shopping malls, which are popular because they gather various business activities under one roof - from clothing stores, small restaurants to bookstores, cinemas and children's playrooms. The prices of renting or purchasing commercial premises in such places are much higher due to their attractiveness.
Commercial buildings for industry – away from housing estates
As for commercial premises intended for production activities, the situation is completely different. The farther from human centers, the better. In the past, industrial and residential zones interpenetrated each other, resulting in neighborhood conflicts. Production halls usually have an unfavorable impact on the environment, such as noise, unpleasant smell, dust. Fortunately, this situation has changed for several decades, thanks to appropriate development of spatial development.
The ideal place for conducting such business activity will be economic zones where investment areas are located, as well as often buildings that remained due to the closure or relocation of the plant. Such buildings have sufficiently large spaces, the necessary infrastructure and adequate facilities in the form of access roads and parking lots. And their adaptation to a new type of activity is often more profitable than building a hall from scratch.
