"The store in Bolesławiec is not subject to the agreement concerning Carrefour’s takeover of Hypernova stores," Maria Cieślikowska, Director of External Communications at Carrefour Polska, told Boleslawiec.org. In doing so, she dispelled some Bolesławiec residents’ doubts about the future of the city’s largest market.

Carrefour and Ahold signed an agreement on the takeover of the stores in November last year. It stipulates that thirteen Hypernova hypermarkets will be taken over by Carrefour by the end of the first quarter of 2005. The facilities being taken over included, among others, the Hypernova in Jelenia Góra.
