New Scania Knowledge Center in Gdańsk

Scania has announced another major investment in Poland. The company has decided to launch a new European knowledge center in Gdańsk. The unit is set to expand over time, gradually bringing together a broad team of HR professionals within core functions.
The Gdańsk-based knowledge center is planned to be one of three global hubs, alongside planned locations in South America and Asia. The decision to locate the center in Poland followed an in-depth analysis of several European countries. Gdańsk stood out due to its excellent access to qualified professionals, strong experience in shared service operations, and a stable economic environment. A significant factor was also Scania’s already well-established presence in Poland, which includes 13 sales branches, 42 authorized service workshops, a training center, and nearly 1,000 employees.
– Gdańsk is a strategic location for us – said Bartosz Poździk, Head of Knowledge Center Europe at Scania. – We are investing here not only in infrastructure and technology, but, most importantly, in people, who will support the growth of our company across multiple continents.
A New Chapter in Pomerania
For over 30 years, Scania operates a bus business in the Pomeranian region (in Słupsk and its surroundings), main factory has been closed in 2024 due to the company’s new strategy. The production of bus chassis is still continuing, with 300 employees.
Years of successful cooperation and mutual trust have made Pomerania a reliable and proven partner for the company. The launch of a new competence center in Gdańsk marks an entirely new chapter in Scania’s operations in Poland.
