The deputy CEO pointed out that new store openings would be concentrated in the second half of the year.
"We will gain 240,000 square metres of new space, which means that 70 percent of the openings planned for this year will take place in the second half of the year," Stelmach said.
"In addition, we have a steadily growing share of licences in our offer, which translates into high margins," he added.
CCC's deputy CEO assessed that the group is well prepared in terms of products for the new season.
"We have all the stock in the warehouse, there will be no delays related to the arrival of goods for the new season in the store," he stressed, announcing that on Friday, CCC is launching the 'Back to school' season, faster than the competition.
When asked about the start of the third quarter, Stelmach replied: "It's only been seven days, but we've had a great start. We have seen a double-digit increase in sales."
