Investments in such a project usually amount to several tens of millions of euros, but the exact value depends on the warehouse area and the price paid for the land.

Kaufland already owns two logistics warehouses, in Ploiesti and Turda, and is developing a third one in the area of Moldavia, in line with information previously provided by Kaufland representatives.

At present, the hypermarket chain is the second biggest owner of logistics space in food retail, after Lidl.

The opening of new logistics centers comes as Kaufland is expanding at a fast pace. Ten new stores were opened in 2021 and expansion is continuing.
