With the new store opening, Kaufland reaches a 153-store network in Romania and creates over 70 new jobs, as per data provided by company officials on Wednesday.
Located within the Oradea Shopping City project, the new store stretches onto almost 5,000 square meters, of which the indoor sales area covers over 3,200 sqm.
Kaufland officials recently told Ziarul Financiar (ZF) daily that in the first six months of 2022, the retailer opened five stores in Bucharest, Turnu Magurele (Teleorman County), Brasov, Iasi and Husi. The company’s long-term objective is to keep an organic growth rate, with on average ten new store openings per annum.
“In the second half of 2022, we shall speed up the expansion pace, but we shall also invest in modernizing the existing stores,” according to Kaufland representatives.
