The establishment now has contemporary refrigeration technology, with an emphasis on material recycling during the renovation process.
Its retail space is unchanged but its reimagined layout facilitates a more streamlined and systematic shopping journey through beverages, dairy products, frozen items and general merchandise.
Employing 81, the hypermarket is equipped with LED illumination, a carbon dioxide-infused refrigeration mechanism capable of heat reclamation, and refrigerators with energy-conserving doors.
SPAR Hungary also allocated more than €1.7m to enhance three supermarkets situated in Miskolc, Sopron and Tatabánya.
