Retailer Billa, part of Rewe Group, has opened a new supermarket in Oradea. The move takes the German group’s network in Romania to 51 units.

The new supermarket in Oradea will be located at 1 Cetatii Square. It will have a sales surface of 840 sqm and sell approximately 6,500 items.

“Oradea is one of the most important cities in north-western Romania and an important economic center. As a result, the decision to open a new store came naturally and it is part of Billa Romania’s plan to offer its products and services in many cities in the country,” said Sabin Fane, marketing manager of Billa Romania. Billa has been active locally since February 1999 and is part of German group Rewe, which also runs the retailers Selgros and Penny in Romania.
