The new 24,600 square-metre warehouse will store all fresh produce supplied by the retailer to its 300 supermarkets in the country.

It will be equipped with state-of-the-art refrigeration technology and the construction will comply with the strictest sustainability criteria, the company said.

Apart from the warehouse, the campus will also house the company’s new headquarters and the online supermarket Capraboacasa.
