A new era begins in Salgótarján: the city’s first STOP SHOP shopping park is being built

The building, which is more than 7,500 square meters, will house 12 stores, including well-known brands such as Euronics, dm, Ecofamily, Háda, Retro and DRK (Dorko). Retro and DRK are opening their first stores in the city, which is a special novelty for the locals. Visitors will find a spacious parking lot, bicycle storage, electric car charging facilities and restrooms to make the shopping park easily accessible by car, bicycle or public transport.

Family-friendly design also plays an important role: a playground will also be built in the STOP SHOP area, which will offer pleasant recreation for families, while the parking lots and pedestrian routes are barrier-free, and the spacious spaces and green areas provide a friendly, orderly environment.

The investment is being implemented according to environmentally friendly principles. The building is being built with energy-efficient heating and lighting, low-water consumption equipment, sustainable waste management, and renewable energy solutions, ensuring long-term environmentally conscious operation.

“The STOP SHOP project in Salgótarján was preceded by extensive preparatory work and thorough research, so we are particularly pleased that the implementation has now started. This is a significant development for the city and the region, as excellent tenants are arriving who will bring a new color to the commercial life of Salgótarján. We are already looking forward to the opening”

– said Balázs Sipos, Senior Retail Asset Manager of CPI Hungary.

CPI Hungary’s goal is for the STOP SHOP in Salgótarján to be not just a shopping center, but a new meeting point for local community life. The retail park is expected to create nearly 100 jobs, and the investor, together with KÉSZ Építő és Szerelő Zrt., responsible for the construction, is paying special attention to ensuring that local entrepreneurs are also given opportunities during the implementation, thereby strengthening the city’s economy and community.

The STOP SHOP network currently operates in ten countries with more than 130 units. In Hungary, CPI Hungary currently operates 14 STOP SHOPs, with a total of 170 thousand square meters of retail space and 320 tenants. The Salgótarján investment joins this successful international network, ensuring the usual STOP SHOP quality: easy accessibility, transparent spaces, fast shopping and a friendly atmosphere.

Construction has already begun, and the opening is expected in the first quarter of 2027. With the arrival of the new STOP SHOP, Salgótarján will not only be enriched with a modern shopping park, but also with a more livable, greener and economically stronger urban environment.
