Zoo Borysew Sp. z o.o.

What Zoo Borysew Sp. z o.o. does

Zoo Borysew Sp. z o.o. operates a privately-held zoological garden on Borysew 25, Poddębice, in the Łódź Voivodeship of central Poland, founded in 2008 under the Polish limited liability company (Sp. z o.o.) structure. The facility houses approximately 1,000 animals representing six continents and holds an estimated 15% of the global white lion and white tiger population, including rare species such as the Chinese leopard, reticulated python, and Arabian oryx. It is open 365 days per year from 9:00 to 19:00 and is positioned as a leading family attraction in the Łódź region, also operating under the trade name Ogród Zoologiczny Koło Łodzi.

The business runs a direct-to-consumer model with diversified revenue streams spanning admissions (individual and group tickets, including bundled entry with Termy Poddębice thermal baths via biletwspolny.pl), on-site hospitality at Restauracja Biały Lew, a souvenir retail shop, the Akademia Zoo Borysew educational program endorsed by the Polish Teachers' Union, and corporate group packages. Customer segments are families with children, individual leisure visitors, organized school and kindergarten groups, and corporate/business clients. Distribution is omnichannel: website ticketing (borysew.emaintenance.pl), Android and iOS mobile applications, on-site box office, and phone-based group reservations (Mon–Fri 8:00–16:00), supported by a multi-channel marketing presence on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube (@zooborysew2008).

The product portfolio combines traditional zoo attractions (a scenic ZOOkolejka train, 7D cinema, Figlarnia indoor playground, Mini ZOO, Egzotarium with aviary, and scheduled feeding demonstrations) with newer digital extensions including an interactive 360-degree virtual tour (Wirtualny Spacer) and a Virtual Zone (Wirtualna Strefa Zoo), both launched on 2026-07-18. The technology stack is conventional web/mobile with no disclosed AI/ML components, payment integration through a third-party ticketing platform, and public-transport route planning via e-podroznik.pl. No funding rounds, M&A activity, or institutional ownership are disclosed, and the registered headcount of 6 employees almost certainly reflects corporate staff rather than the broader operational and seasonal workforce.
