The Conad La Filanda superstore in Faenza (Ra) has reopened with a new layout and many services

Cia-Conad has reopened to the public the Conad La Filanda superstore on Via della Costituzione in Faenza (Ra) following refurbishment work: a completely renovated layout, 30 additional jobs and many modern services.

Present at the ribbon-cutting ceremony were the mayor of Faenza, Massimo Isola, the CEO of Cia-Conad, Luca Panzavolta, and the president of Cia-Conad, Maurizio Pelliconi, also in his capacity here as the Conad member-owner. Pelliconi is, in fact, one of the members of Filanda Distribuzione, which manages the store together with Giancarlo Conti, Anna Montanari, Federica Malavolti, Stefano Testa and Debora Ancarani.

Key strengths

There are many strengths, from the staffed meat counter with traditional bone-in processing to the in-house patisserie, from the kitchen offering a world of gastronomic specialities to the new oriental specialities department in partnership with “Natura Sushi”.

New too are the “speedy spesa” self-checkouts, which add to the numerous payment methods available. Across the 3.300 sqm of sales area, the traditional focus on local fresh and very fresh products stands out, such as those in the “Siamo Romagna” range, which highlights local suppliers.

The store also houses the staffed fish counter, the wine cellar and a well-stocked bakery counter. The range is completed by the varied selection of Conad-branded products and themed aisles for sweets, coffee, pet food and organic products.

The superstore does not exhaust the Conad-branded offering within the shopping centre. Just a few metres away, customers will find a pharmacy, the “Con Sapore” restaurant bar and a fuel station.

Opening hours remain unchanged, from Monday to Saturday, from 7:30 to 20:30; on Sundays from 8:30 to 19:30.

Comments

"In these first 15 years – says the CEO of Cia-Conad, Luca Panzavolta – Conad La Filanda has established a deep bond with the area and its community, becoming a benchmark for grocery shopping thanks to the quality of its products and service, the value for money of its offering and the recognised professionalism of the members who run it. However, the store's presence in the area dates back much further, having been present in Faenza since 1991 and having strengthened a strong bond with the local community over more than three decades. The work carried out today demonstrates the desire to continue investing in this relationship through a larger, more modern and functional store capable of meeting consumers' new needs. It is now reopening with an even richer offering, introducing state-of-the-art services and confirming our daily commitment to the growth of the community and quality of life in the area".

"Celebrating the anniversary of the Conad superstore and La Filanda shopping centre – says Maurizio Pelliconi, president of Cia-Conad – is a source of extraordinary pride for all of us members. Every detail has been designed to offer our customers a modern, convenient and high-quality shopping experience. We have grown together with the community of Faenza, of which we feel an integral part, and we want to continue focusing on the future, with an investment that delivers a shopping experience in line with the latest trends, ever greater value for money and, last but not least, an important impact in terms of employment".
