All of the group’s companies, operating in five countries, reported growth last year.
Maxima Group said it invested €75.2 million in expansion of the chain, opening 25 new supermarkets.
“Consistent implementation of Maxima’s business strategy resulted in steadily growing performance in all of the group’s companies. Economic growth in the countries and positive outlook on personal finance fuelled consumption, which in turn increased our sales,” said Maxima Group CEO Neringa Janavičiūtė.

Over half of Maxima’s investment last year, €35.8 million, went to Estonia, where the group opened a new 45,000 square metre logistics centre. The turnover of Maxima Eesti grew 9.7%, hitting €440.8 million in 2015.
