POZNAN, POLAND, August 21st 2023 – ChargeEuropa, a Poland-based CPO focused on urban EV charging announced a partnership with Transgourmet Polska to install and operate EV charging stations at the parking lot of every Selgros store across the country. Transgourmet Polska currently have 19 Selgros hypermarket stores distributed throughout the country serving over 2.2 million registered customers.
“We are thrilled and proud to partner with one of the largest and established cash & carry chains in Europe” says Matt Tymowski, CEO of ChargeEuropa. “Transgourmet’s commitment to providing a convenient and positive shopping experience is something we are very closely aligned with when it comes to EV charging”.
As part of the agreement, ChargeEuropa will install EV charging stations in highly visible and easily accessible locations for Selgros shoppers. “You’re not going to find us at the back of the building, next to the switchboard, we are going to be visible from the moment you arrive at the store” says Euan Wheatley, COO of ChargeEuropa. “Customers looking to charge can sometimes have a hard time getting the exact location of an EV charging station at a given site – we want to remove that bottleneck”.
ChargeEuropa is gaining strong momentum with retail chains in Poland. The stations have proven to drive traffic to stores that host them as well as increase customer dwell-time. Site partners like Transgourmet recognize these advantages and anticipate a multi-faceted benefit to their stores.
“We decided to partner with ChargeEuropa for our EV charging infrastruture because the advertising business model provided us with certainty that they can grow with us, even in the early-stages of EV adoption in Poland” said Bartosz Jankowiak, Technical Director of Transgourmet Polska. “We have seen them execute the project successfully last year at our Puławska store and this has given us the confidence that they can continue to deliver the same experience, nation-wide.”
