Investment climate

 
 

Legnica has for many years focussed on economic diversification, trying to reduce the threat posed by the monoculture of the mining and metallurgical industry in the region. The outcomes of these actions have included the establishment of the Legnica Special Economic Zone (LSEZ) and the Economic Activity Zone (EAZ). As of the end of June 2023, 14 731 entities were registered in the REGON register in Legnica, including:

  • Industry and construction: 2 818
  • Agriculture, forestry, hunting and fisheries: 78
  • Other activities: 11 835

Since 2018 new legal regulations have applied in Poland, having replaced the prior mechanism of State aid for investors, available in the Special Economic Zones. At present, entrepreneurs can apply for a decision on support for a new investment project as part of the Polish Investment Zone. In Legnica, the mechanisms of this aid for investors are used by companies from Poland, Netherlands, Germany, France, Japan and USA.


The companies located in the LSEZ operate mainly in the metal, automotive, chemical, plastic and food sectors. It is worth adding that Legnica is situated within the area of the direct impact of the Wrocław-Prague-Dresden metropolitan area, which is characterised by high specialisation in the automotive sector. It is strongly represented in Legnica, too.
