The largest drugstore chain in Europe, dm drogerie markt, which operates in 13 European countries, is preparing to conquer the Polish market.
The company’s headquarters will be in Wroclaw, and the opening of the first stores is expected soon.
“In the past years, our colleagues from Austria have successfully expanded the dm drogerie chain to more than ten European countries. Accordingly, we continue with our expansion plans by now entering Poland. We have carefully examined the market and we are convinced that we will attract customers in this country with our wide range of products and services, “said Christoph Werner, Chairman of the Management Board of dm in Germany.
Markus Trojanski, Director of Expansion in East Germany, will be responsible for setting up and opening dm stores in Poland. As Trojanski points out, the selection of employees who will work in the first drugstores in Poland is underway, and there is a great interest from salespeople to work in the future stores.
“A large number of our colleagues in the Czech Republic and Germany, who speak Polish and German, are interested in working in Polish dm stores,” added Trojanski.
