Polish retailer Biedronka has announced it is opening its first ever store in Slovakia this month, supported by a new distribution centre in Voderady.
The new store in Miloslavov is expected to offer 3,400 product lines. It intends to source half of its fresh food from Slovak suppliers, with a long-term goal of stocking 40% Slovak products.
A subsidiary of the Portuguese retail giant Jeronimo Martins, Biedronka operates 3,730 stores across Poland, and generated €33.5 billion ($35.2 billion) in turnover in 2024. It employs around 81,000 people, making it one of Poland’s largest private employers.
Commenting on the move, Biedronka Slovakia CEO Maciej Lukowski said: “We’re first focusing on building stores in small and medium-sized cities, with Bratislava being our next step”.
