Foxway is expanding its largest tech center in Tartu, Estonia, uniting all operations and supporting functions currently split across two buildings into one integrated site. This strategic development underscores the company’s commitment to increased efficiency, advanced automation, and future-proof infrastructure aligned with long-term business goals.
As a leading provider of circular tech solutions, Foxway resold nearly 2.8 million electronic devices in 2024. With six tech centers across Europe, the company anticipates processing more than five million devices within the next five years in Tartu alone.
The planned expansion will add approximately 10,000 m² to the existing site on Põhjaringi street, increasing the total footprint to 16,890 m². Construction is scheduled for completion by the end of 2027.
For the past several years, the operations in Estonia have operated out of two buildings located roughly two kilometers apart. One of the current facilities requires extensive future investment to meet ESG-compliant heating standards and poses logistical and capacity challenges. Centralizing all activities at Põhjaringi offers a more sustainable and scalable solution, while also enabling the next phase of automation building on the company’s in-house engineering expertise showcased in its newly launched automated warehouse system.
Following the design principles of the original Põhjaringi building, the new facility will meet high standards for energy efficiency, accessibility, and employee wellbeing. It will include full wheelchair access, expanded parking for bicycles and scooters, and additional charging stations for electric vehicles.
“This expansion is a strategic leap forward for Foxway. The Tartu site has long played a pivotal role in enabling our operations and delivering on our circular tech mission,” says Patrick Höijer, CEO at Foxway. “By bringing all functions under one roof, we’re enhancing our operational flow, reducing internal transport time, and setting the stage for future automation, and just as importantly, this move strengthens team collaboration and improves communication, by bringing our people under one roof”.
The upgraded tech center will reinforce Foxway’s dedication to operational excellence and service reliability, while supporting its continued leadership in sustainable technology lifecycle management.
