The Polish chain Pepco, specializing in home articles, decoration and fashion, will open its first store in Paços de Ferreira. The opening is scheduled for September 10 and the new store will be located on the 2nd floor of the Ferrara Plaza shopping center.

With this new opening, Pepco reinforces its presence in the Portuguese market, where it already has 28 stores distributed across the country. The expansion to Paços de Ferreira is part of the chain's continuous growth strategy on the Iberian Peninsula.
