Supermarket chain Marinopoulos says its stores remain open

Greek supermarket chain Marinopoulos said on Wednesday the operation of its stores continues normally, a day after it filed for bankruptcy at a Greek court. The company’s request will be discussed at a court hearing on July 1.

“The stores and their employees make every effort for a smooth operation and excellent service to consumers. At the same time, we are continuing discussions with the banks to produce a framework that will allow the long-term viability of the company,” Marinopolos said in a statement. It also added that the company’s entry under a consolidation procedure is the only way to keep the chain open and secure jobs.
Marinopoulos is Carrefour's exclusive franchisee in southeastern Europe with stores in Albania, FYROM and Bulgaria.
