Lisbon will host one of the largest Zara stores in the world. After Madrid, where the Inditex brand opened its largest store with an area of 7,700 square meters in 2022, the Portuguese capital will now rise to second place on the podium.
This information was confirmed by João Antunes, Director of Talent Acquisition at the Spanish Group, during the Employer Branding Conference. “I invite you to visit the new Zara store in Colombo and the future store opening in Rossio, which will be the second largest store in the world and will offer a customer experience based on innovation and sustainability.”
What will be the second largest Zara store in the world will be located in the emblematic building where Pastelaria Switzerland is located, in the emblematic Rossio building, and should open its doors in the coming months.
“It is an area that forms part of the Baixa Pombalina and the Rossio Square protection zone. Being between two squares, it is one of the most attractive blocks for investors. It is without a doubt one of the most iconic buildings in Portugal, not least because of its location,” said André Caedo, founder of Contacto Atlântico studio. “.
The four-building complex was purchased in February 2018 by the Spanish company Mabel Capital, for €62 million, and has a total area of 12,000 square metres. This space will become a center with many shops, although a luxury hotel and several apartments are initially planned.
