Timisoara-based Profi Rom Food, a division of the Belgian distribution group Louis Delhaize, is planning to open ten discounter-type stores across the country, and to invest some 6 million euros in expansion. The company officials say each store costs 500,000 to 600,000 euros to open and is set to be 3,500 sqm wide, 800 sqm of which account for the actual commercial area.
Every shopping centre will also have 50-60 parking spots. Profi will open two stores in Cluj and one in Alba Iulia, Baia Mare and Satu Mare each, with the rest of the expansion locations left to be decided soon. The stores will sell foodstuffs, household items and cleaning products. The product range offered comprises more than 1,500 articles, about 90% of which are made in Romania. Profi Rom Food is currently operating ten stores in Timisoara, Arad, Brasov, Sfantu Gheorghe, Baia Mare, Cluj and Oradea. ZF
