Mercadona will open its new supermarket in Frielas, Loures, on October 16. The Spanish brand’s latest store is located at Rua do Bom Jardim, nº 2, as detailed in a recent statement.

The company highlighted that this new opening “marks a significant step in strengthening Mercadona’s presence in the municipality, bringing us even closer to our ‘Chefs’ (customers).”

The Spanish group also announced, “This new supermarket will create about 90 new stable and quality jobs, with permanent contracts from the first day, thereby contributing to local employment.”

The store will feature a sales area of approximately 1,900 m2, with wide aisles allowing for comfortable shopping, divided into sections like Charcuterie, Fish Market, Pastry and Bakery, Perfumery, Butchery, Fruits and Vegetables, and Ready-to-Eat, similar to the store in Santa Iria de Azóia.
