Studenac has permanently closed two stores in Zadar and one in Privlaka as part of its restructuring. These are the branches on Šibenska street and Ulica Mate Balote in Zadar, and Ulica Ivana Pavla II. in Privlaka.
According to company data, the closed Zadar stores are located at Šibenska street 9C and Ulica Mate Balote 54, while the closed Privlaka branch was at Ulica Ivana Pavla II. 64. The stores closed on 10 October 2026, and the amended list was published on 12 October.
Studenac has permanently closed 79 stores in Croatia in total. The company initially planned to close 104 stores, but subsequently abandoned the closure of 25. The initial list of 9 October included stores at Banjevci 74 and Ulica kralja Tomislava 2A in Benkovac, which are not on the final list.
In a statement on 12 October, the company explained that it had further considered the sustainability of the business for those stores, other management models, and the importance of individual stores to local communities. All employees of the closed stores were offered the opportunity to continue working in other branches of the chain, and the majority of them continue to work in nearby Studenac stores.
By closing 79 stores, Studenac expects annual savings of around three million euros. The total expected annual impact of all measures already implemented amounts to 33 million euros, and with additional planned measures, the target is to reach 41 million euros annually from 2027.
