The largest shopping centre in Slovakia, Bratislava’s Avion, is being expanded by approximately 13,000 m². Once this expansion is completed, the shopping centre will comprise more than 145,000 m². The expansion project represents an investment of about €15m, including works on increasing the centre’s parking capacity, according to representatives of Avion’s developer Inter Ikea Centre Slovensko.
The extension enables new brands and shops, most of which are fashion retailers, to establish a presence in the centre.
Part of the expansion will include the reconstruction of the Hypernova hypermarket. Work on the hypermarket is expected to start in the second quarter of next year and reopening is currently scheduled for the end of 2011 or early 2012.
