Retail giant SPAR has opened its first supermarket in Latvia in the city of Saldus, 120 kilometres west of Riga.

The outlet will cater to the daily shopping needs of customers living within the community of Saldus

In 2021, SPAR International granted a licence to operate the brand in Latvia to S&P Logistics. The 720-square-metre store includes an in-store bakery, as well as grocery and fresh products. Positioned as a neighbourhood store, the outlet will cater to the daily shopping needs of customers living within the community of Saldus.

SPAR Latvia is planning to implement a multi-format retail strategy across the country, with all stores offering goods sourced from Baltic manufacturers and brands, as well as SPAR’s own-brand products from all main product groups. It will include private-label products from its value line, as well as premium, organic, and eco product lines. The retailer aims to provide local producers an opportunity to increase the accessibility of their products by selling them through SPAR stores.
