Big prizes also went to Victoria’s Secret, collecting wins for Fashion Retailer – over 1,000 sqm, and Newcomer of the Year. Similarly, shoe retailer Kazar, won the coveted Overall Retailer of the Year. The company was recognised by the jury for its continued expansion, and confidence in the CEE region throughout 2017.
