German discounter chain is looking for offices and employees
Currently, representatives of the German network are looking for places for their stores and employees. Woolworth is looking for outlets both in parks and malls, as well as in high-traffic pedestrian areas and close to downtown shopping areas. Discounters are looking for, for example, an expansion manager, an accountant, store managers and employees, and employees of the IT services department.
Woolworth is the second German company to announce significant investments in Poland this year. In March, the Mix Markt chain of stores appeared on the Polish market. Its outlets already exist in three cities in the south of the country. The company competes with Biedronka and Lidl supermarkets.
Mix Markt is already tempting shoppers with “best prices”. The assortment of the discount store includes not only meat, dairy products or fresh vegetables and fruits. What distinguishes the German network from other discounters on the Polish market is the goods from different countries, the so-called. ethnic products.
