Poznań-based Scallier has completed and opened a new FunShop Park retail facility in Ploiești, Romania. The retail park, located in the northern part of the city, offers 10,000 square metres of gross leasable area. Ploiești has a population of over 200,000. The development includes a 2,300-square-metre Lidl supermarket and a shopping centre with individual entrances to each store. Tenants at FunShop Park Ploiești include brands such as DM, Sinsay, TEDi, KiK, ZooCenter, Pepco, Jysk, Hervis, New Yorker, CCC, Flanco, and Agroland. The complex also features dining options, including the Rimini restaurant and the FryDay drive-thru, as well as a fitness club operated by a recognised chain. Romania’s economy, supported by consistent growth and a large consumer base, provides favourable conditions for retail development. The country’s retail sales continue to grow, while the supply of modern retail space remains low compared to other Central and Eastern European markets. Retail parks are the main contributors to new retail space in Romania, with development rates comparable to those in Poland when adjusted for market size. Demand for local shopping centres remains high, as reflected in low vacancy rates and the rapid leasing of new developments. FunShop Park Ploiești expands Scallier’s network of retail parks in Romania. Since 2021, Scallier has completed and opened FunShop Park projects in Roșiorii de Vede, Focșani, Turda, Vaslui, Timișoara, Moșnița Nouă, and Arad, contributing more than 70,000 square metres of gross leasable area to the Romanian market.
