“We want to grow our business by attracting customers with new and modern services and facilities. To do this takes investment,” a spokesperson for the Novosibirsk-based company told just-food today (29 May).
The company currently operates 131 supermarkets and neighbourhood stores in Siberia.
While the food retail market in Siberia is not yet as competitive as other regions – particularly Moscow and St Petersburg – Holiday has said that it needs funding in order to prepare for the arrival of other food retailers to the area.
According to a Bloomberg report, Holiday may sell a stake of between 20% and 35% in an initial public offering after 2009 to help fund expansion.
