HalfPrice is conquering Poland and announcing foreign expansion
In the first month of operation of the HalfPrice chain in Poland, it was visited by over 500 thousand. customers. Currently, 13 stores operate under this brand, including the newest flagship store in the Warsaw department store. The scale of success meant that the CCC Group decided to accelerate the opening of points under the HalfPrice banner outside Poland. The car showroom in Hungary will make its debut in August. Soon, customers in Austria and the Czech Republic will also be able to shop in the new network. A total of 65 stores will be opened in Poland and Europe by the end of the year.
- The decision to open HaflPrice after another protracted lockdown was a jump into the deep water, for which we were well prepared. The first weeks of operation of the new chain show that the concept of off-price stores turned out to be a great success and met with great interest of customers. Since May 4, we have been visited by over half a million customers. During that time, we opened 13 stores all over Poland. There will be 60 of them by the end of the year, and in the fall we are starting online sales, which shows how dynamically we are developing the new brand, and at the same time how large this logistics project is - says Adam Holewa, President of the HalfPrice Management Board.
