Metro consolidation in Constanta

Metro Cash & Carry Romania, the largest company dealing in trade on the Romanian market, opened its second store in Constanta yesterday, following a 15 million-euro investment. The company therefore has come to operate 21 stores on the Romanian market, with investments involved thus far exceeding 315 million euros. The opening of the new store was intended to help improve the delivery stream especially during the busiest months, Metro Romania’s general manager Dusan Wilms stated. Constanta is not the first city besides Bucharest where Metro owns two stores. The same happened in Brasov this autumn, where the company opened its second store. Furthermore, Metro Cash & Carry Romania opened its first store in the Republic of Moldova, in Kishinev, this year. ZF
