However, the company has not set a certain target when it comes to network size, rather choosing to assess the situation yearly.
Richard Hodul, CEO of Sportisimo group, says that in terms of geographic and population size, Romania is a top market for the group and it hasn’t completed its mission here.
Sportisimo is now present on six markets, three large ones and three small ones, having 232 stores overall. The large markets are Czechia, Slovakia and Romania, with the latter two being similar by network size, with over 50 units.
As regards Sportisimo business in its entirety, 2023 has been a good year, but things are not getting any easier. It’s the same situation everywhere, though.
Sportisimo ended 2022 with RON236 million in Romania, up 13.4%, being a major player in sporting goods retail.
