The opening of the space is marked with a 10% discount on Continente Card campaign, throughout the store, between November 29th and December 3rd, which combines with current promotions.
“The opening of the new Gafanha da Nazaré store represents the mission that has guided Continente for more than 37 years, of offering quality products at affordable prices to families. The focus on proximity to our customers is a priority, always placing them at the centre of our business, providing them with the best value proposition and brand experience,” explains Store Director, Patrício Gonçalves, who has been with MC for 13 years.
The new store offers a range of thousands of products, which includes Continente’s private label and the brands that usually make up the basket of Portuguese choices. It also features the new self-check-out service (6 cashiers), which allows access with shopping carts. This opening reinforces the brand’s commitment to the municipality of Ílhavo, which now has 3 Continente stores.
To highlight its arrival in the region, Missão Continente gifted shopping carts filled with essential goods to the institutions sponsored by the new store: ‘Património dos Pobres da Freguesia de Ílhavo’, ‘Re-food 4 Good’ (Aveiro) and ‘Gaticão’ (Association of Friends of Abandoned Animals). Missão Continente will permanently support these institutions, through daily food surpluses from the new Continente Bom Dia Gafanha da Nazaré store.
At Continente Bom Dia Gafanha da Nazaré, consumers can also use reusable bags when purchasing fruit, vegetables or bakery products, or reusable boxes for delicatessen and take-away products. Also noteworthy are the fresh and seasonal products always available, from fruits and vegetables, to the bakery, butcher and fishmonger that the store offers, with national products.
On the environmental front, the photovoltaic solar panels on the roof and in the car park stand out, which represent around 45% of the store's total consumption, guaranteeing its self-sufficiency for a period of more than 8 hours on a day with good solar radiation. The store also features 100% LED low consumption light bulbs for lighting, and equipment to control and reduce excessive water consumption.
There are currently more than 150 Continente Bom Dia stores in Portugal, where around 7000 people work.
By the end of 2023, Continente will invest a total of 35 million euros in the opening of 16 proximity stores, which represent the creation of 512 jobs and occupy a total sales area of 18,000 m2.
Paredes, Coruche, Largo do Rato, Arroios, Vila Pouca de Aguiar, Gafanha de Nazaré, Alcácer do Sal, Arganil, Bolhão (Porto), Fajões, Oliveira de Frades, São Pedro da Cova, Alcanena, Leça da Palmeira, Pousada de Saramagos and Pevidém are the new stores’ locations.
