Austrian company XXXLutz plans to build a new store in the north of the Slovak capital near the new Bory Hospital, according to HNonline.sk.
“The whole Slovak Republic will be XXXL,” was the campaign of Austrian furniture maker XXXLutz three years ago. Back then, it opened five stores in Košice, Poprad, Nitra, Banská Bystrica and Bratislava. It was a transformation of the former Kika department stores.
At the time, the retailer made no secret of its ambition to become the market leader in its field in Slovakia. According to HNonline.sk, the world’s second-largest furniture retailer is apparently doing well and is thus going to further expand its basic network.
In addition to Žilina, where the construction of a new store is progressing, it has its sights set on other plots of land in the capital, where one of its stores already operates on Galvaniho Street. The chain should soon expand with another store in the growing Penta zone in the north of Bratislava, immediately next to the new Bory Hospital.
