The inauguration of Penny Market in Crotone, which will be held tomorrow, July 2, represents a significant step in the valorization of regionality and in the economic and social development of the city. With its commitment to sustainability and innovation, PENNY confirms itself as a valuable partner for the local community, offering quality products and new job opportunities.
The store is located in the West area, in the popular neighborhood "Trecento Alloggi" in via Gioacchino Da Fiore, 12, this is the second store in the province after the opening in Cutro last year, and the fifth in the entire Calabria region.
The new Penny store is not only a modern commercial space, but also an urban redevelopment project. The previously degraded area has been transformed into a livable space with a public car park surrounded by greenery. With 900 square metres of sales area, the new store is positioned as a solid discount food offer in Crotone, promoting typical products of the region and offering a wide assortment that includes butcher, served deli, hot point and territorial references of renowned local brands.
Penny is strongly committed to sustainability through the “Viviamo Sostenibile” program. This commitment translates into concrete actions against food waste, respect for the environment and social responsibility. The new building was designed with environmental sustainability and energy saving in mind. Thanks to the photovoltaic system on the roof and the intelligent air conditioning system, the building is able to generate almost all the energy needed for its operation.
The opening of the new Penny Market has created 17 new jobs, 16 of which are reserved for Crotone residents. This represents a significant contribution to the local economy, providing employment opportunities and professional growth for the community. Opening hours are Monday through Saturday from 8:00 to 21:30, and Sunday from 8:00 to 21:00, to ensure maximum flexibility and customer service.
The format of the new Penny store includes an assortment of 75% Italian products, with a particular attention to regionalisms and local productions. This choice reflects Penny's commitment to enhancing quality and convenience, offering a range of products that spans from food to non-food.
