Supernova Group, one of Europe’s leading companies specializing in investments in shopping centers, has successfully completed the acquisition of two additional shopping centers under the MAX brand in Slovakia – MAX Žilina and MAX Dunajská Streda from Euromax Slovakia a.s. With this acquisition, the number of MAX centers owned by Supernova in Slovakia has increased to a total of six, further strengthening the company’s position in one of the region’s most dynamic markets.
Supernova has been active in the Slovak market since 2016, when it began operations with a portfolio of eleven OBI stores. In 2022, the portfolio was expanded with the acquisition of four MAX shopping centers in Trnava, Trenčín, Nitra, and Poprad, which together encompass over 60,000 m² of retail space.
“The acquisition of the centers in Žilina and Dunajská Streda is a strategic step in expanding our portfolio across Europe, aimed at further strengthening our leadership position in the retail real estate sector in the region. We are confident that our new centers, thanks to their attractive locations, diverse offerings, and high standards in design and functionality, will positively impact the quality of life in the local communities and provide added value to consumers. We continue to invest in innovative solutions and the modernization of our properties to ensure long-term sustainability and the satisfaction of all our partners and visitors,” said Markus Pinggera, managing director of Supernova Group.
The MAX Žilina shopping center, located in the southwestern part of Slovakia’s fourth-largest city, offers over 18,000 m² of leasable area, with more than 65 stores and attracts around 2 million visitors annually. Key tenants include Cinemax, Tempo, JYSK, Action, and New Yorker.
In Dunajská Streda, a regional center with more than 23,000 inhabitants and excellent transport connectivity, the MAX center features 9,600 m² of leasable area and houses over 45 stores including Sinsay, New Yorker, Pepco, and CCC, attracting approximately 1.2 million visitors each year.
With this expansion, Supernova further consolidates its position as one of the leading retail investors in the region and continues to develop and modernize shopping destinations, with a focus on responsible environmental management, promotion of renewable energy sources, and sustainable resource management.
