Description
A new distribution centre for the Stokrotka chain of stores is under construction in Rzeszów, the capital of Podkarpackie province. The facility, supporting the development of the retail chain, will start operating in the last quarter of 2023, with recruitment starting in early 2023. The distribution centre will employ 200 people.
Located in Rzeszow, the warehouse will occupy more than 26,000 square meters of space. The new centre will ultimately supply groceries to 250 stores of the Stokrotka chain. The design of the distribution centre has solutions that ensure the efficiency of logistics of the Stokrotka retail chain.
Stokrotka is a chain of supermarkets and industrial stores, part of the Lithuanian Maxima Group. It was established in 1994 in Lublin. At the end of 2022, the 900th store of the chain was opened.Â
