Vision & long-term
Nr4 meets a clear and enduring market need with a strong focus on customer relationships and quality. We believe in the sustainable growth of specialised retail concepts that target a specific customer group.
Recent developments
Early last year, we took over the Grandissimo stores in two Dutch department stores owned by our partner Berden. The strategy is to further expand Grandissimo in the Netherlands.
In Belgium, Nr4 recently took over a new store in Grimbergen. This move strengthens our presence in Flanders and is in line with our strategy to expand the network in a targeted manner.
