Silpo Mountain Extreme – supermarket in Ivano-Frankivsk redesigned 04.12.2020
4 December 2020, redesigned Silpo themed as a Carpathian sky destination opened in Ivano-Frankivsk at 168a Hetmana Mazepy street.

"When choosing the concept in Spring at the time when all the borders were closed, we wanted to highlight the endless tourist opportunities Ukraine has to offer", – explains Kateryna Oguryaeva, Silpo Marketing Director.  "Naturally, the list of extreme and leisure opportunities for tourists in our Carpathian mountains is never-ending. However we managed to reflect the top ones in our supermarket."

1800 square meter trading floor is divided into summer and winter sections by respective types of sport and leisure activities. The touristy SILPO route takes you first on a stroll under the hang gliders, followed by a clearing in the woods full of mushrooms, passing a huge basket of blueberries in the produce section. Looking up in the delicatessen section you can find mountain climbers, who thoughtfully supplemented their climbing gear with strings of sausages and cheese. Make a longer stop when choosing fresh fish, this way you will be able to enjoy a dynamic installation with a freerider in a kayak. Further down in fresh meat and dairy sections you will be welcomed by snow-covered slopes with skiers and snowboarders. You can take a break near our pizza stand that looks exactly the same as famous mountain Kolyba chalet-restaurants near ski lifts in Bukovel.

Silpo revamped not only its interior but its product selection on offer as well. There is a brand new flower and coffee shop Feel__trd. The fresh meat section now has its own maturing chamber. Delicatessen got a separate display case "Traditional specialties" (Lavka Tradytsii). While the fresh fish section was boosted with an aquarium for oysters. 

Visit Silpo to stock up on gourmet foods and to take perfect selfies with friends ready to wonder into the mountains, or to dream about the next season if you miss now your favourite extreme sports.
