Hungary’s first Tesco has turned 25

What do the Atlanta Olympics and Tesco have in common? The answer is 25 years. In 1996, the Summer Olympic Games were held in the American city, where the Hungarian team won a total of 21 medals, and in the same year the first Tesco hypermarket opened in Hungary, which was also unique in the region. The store in the Pólus Center was visited by so many people on the day of its opening on November 8th that visitors waited in queues of several hundred meters for hours to get into the store.
