Ahold enters Slovakia in November

The Dutch retail multinational will start operations in Slovakia in November. With a strong presence in the neighbouring Czech Republic, Ahold starts its Slovakian operation with Hypernova compact hypermarkets. They have an average selling space of 3,500 square meters. The stores offer a range of about 40,000 products, both food and non-food.

Under the name Hypernova, Ahold expects to open eight compact hypermarkets and two very large hypermarkets, approximately 8,000 square meters, within a 12 month period.
