Selgros Timisoara opens its doors

Timisoara’s map of places to shop will no longer be the same now that the first Selgros store has opened in the city by the Bega River. Selgros Cash & Carry opened its seventh wholesale-type shopping centre in its Romanian network. The cash and carry store in Timisoara is its second investment planned for this year, following the opening of a supermarket in Constanta in March. In the long run, the company hopes to see the opening of at least 15 shopping centres. The works on building the store began this April and the company managed to keep its promise to have an offer for the people in Timisoara ready for August 3, when Timisoara’s Day is celebrated. The shopping centre, a 15 million-euro investment, is located on a busy road by the city exit. “This area is extremely important both because of the traffic and due to its prospects for development into a commercial pole of city,” said Jurgen Kautzmann, Selgros Cash & Carry chairman.
