Store renovation & conversion of storage into sales floor

01 — The challenge

The JUMBO store was already trading, in a two-storey, 10,200 m² concrete building with a glass facade in central Thessaloniki, near the port. The brief was to renovate it and turn part of its storage space into sales floor. Work went ahead with a shared pedestrian area in front of the entrance and neighbouring shops open, so organising the site mattered as much as the construction itself.

02 — Our solution

In the storage area, masonry walls were broken out and the interiors stripped, so that the services could be re-routed for the store's new layout. New floor tiling followed on both levels, along with column cladding and painting in the JUMBO colours and the fit-out of the entrance. The facade sign and the lit display cases on the plaza were outside our scope; we coordinated our work with their crews so that no crew was left waiting on another.
