The opening of the space is marked with a 10% 10% discount on Continente Card campaign, throughout the store, between the 20th and 24th of December, which accumulates with current promotions.
“We arrived in São Pedro da Cova today with a focus on being close to our customers, on the quality and variety of our products, which include our own private labels and also the brands that usually make up the basket of choices of those who visit us. We want to continue to be close to Portuguese families, repaying the affection we have had for over 38 years,” explains Store Director, Sandra Faria, who has been with MC for 13 years.
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.
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.
There are currently more than 170 Continente Bom Dia stores in Portugal, where more than 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.
