Today, over 400 years on, Zamość is a city friendly to its residents and open to investors. There are important transport routes running across Zamość: the national road S-17, which links Warsaw and Lviv, Ukraine, and is part of the Via Intermare transport corridor from the Baltic to the Black Sea, the national road no. 74 linking the Zosin-Ustilug border crossing with central Poland, and the LHS wide-gauge railway line linking the Upper Silesian industrial district with the Ukrainian and Russian railway systems.

Three Polish-Ukrainian border crossings are located at a distance of 60 kilometres from Zamość: the Hrebenne-Rava Ruska road and railway crossing on the route from Warsaw to Lviv, the Hrubieszów-Izov railway crossing on the route from Upper Silesia to Kyiv, and the Zosin-Ustilug road crossing on the route from central Poland to Kyiv.

The city’s location at the intersection of international road and railway routes close to the Polish-Ukrainian border creates very favourable conditions for the development of international trade and transit services, logistics centres and manufacturing activity.



Zamość has attractive commercial land of almost 35 hectares. It comes in two complexes of plots:

- plots on Szczebrzeska Street - 27 hectares in total,

- a plot on Starowiejska Street – 7.5 hectares.



In order to support the economic development of the city and reduce unemployment, the municipal authorities have decided to create even better condition for investment in Zamość. On August 25, 2008 the Zamość City Council adopted a resolution under which the commercial land was included in the Euro Park Mielec Special Economic Zone.

The Special Economic Zone is an area where businesses may start manufacturing and service activity and receive preferential tax treatment. The area is fully prepared for investment, which means it is complete with utilities and road infrastructure. Companies may receive assistance in the form of tax breaks if they conduct business operations and create new jobs in the Zamość Special Economic Sub-Zone.

Investors who receive a permit to operate in the Zamość Special Economic Sub-Zone automatically receive the right to exemptions from income tax and, under the Zamość City Council resolution of October 29, 2007, exemptions from real estate tax as regional assistance to investors conducting business activity in the sub-zone.
