Romanian food retailer Mega Image has invested over €25 million in renovating and modernising its stores and warehouses. The retailer, which is part of the Ahold Delhaize group, has already renovated 140 out of its 975 stores.

Investment in new equipment, automated processes, and staff training are part of a broader process aimed at reinforcing store safety measures.

Mega Image also noted that it continues to collaborate with authorities, to ensure that the products sold in its stores are safe and of high quality.

This comes after Romania’s consumer protection agency, ANPC, fined Mega Image €1 million after conducting checks in 230 stores and discovering irregularities in the storage of fruit and vegetables.

The ANPC also fined a number of other retailers for similar irregularities.

Mega Image has implemented additional sanitary and food safety measures, ensuring a safer, more pleasant shopping experience.

The retailer collaborates with over 300 local producers, who delivered 28,600 tonnes of fruit and vegetables last year. All products are monitored in specialised laboratories throughout the growing period and before reaching the store shelves.

Its private-label assortment currently comprises some 800 SKUs, accounting for 25% of Mega Image’s sales.

Ahold Delhaize recently acquired Romanian grocery retailer Profi Rom Food for €1.3 billion.
