ZF identified as permanently closed stores in Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Ploiesti, Ghimbav, Bragadiru, Fierbinti Targ, Peris and Pantelimon, according to Google Maps.
Ziarul Financiar sent several inquiries to Annabella officials about these closures but has not received any answer.
The restructuring comes only one year after Annabella took over the stores.
Anabella had bought the 87 supermarkets and convenience stores operating as Mega Image and Profi from Ahold Delhaize, which had to comply with a requirement of the competition watchdog after buying Profi.
