Construction of new retail centre underway in Považská Bystrica

Construction has begun on a new department store in Považská Bystrica, with completion planned for September 2025. The project is being developed by HSF System SK in cooperation with investor Firmbox, with a total investment of EUR 1.68 million.

Located near the existing Tesco supermarket, the new centre will offer retail, services, and dining facilities. It is designed as a compact, multi-unit building with a unified structural and architectural layout. The department store will have a total built-up area of 1,501 square metres and a usable area of 2,376 square metres.

The structure will use a precast reinforced concrete frame, and the façade will feature sandwich panels and glazed entrances with awnings to provide natural lighting. Plans also include designated signage areas for individual tenants to improve visibility.

The site will include 48 parking spaces and will connect to existing infrastructure via roads and pedestrian pathways in the Tesco area. Deliveries will be handled through a service road at the rear of the building to reduce congestion for visitors. The location is expected to serve both residents of Považská Bystrica and nearby communities.
