The department store's director Harri Saarto said previously that quality service and variety of products offered by the department store would help it successfully compete with other shopping centers in Riga.
"Stockmann's" total commercial area is 11,000 square meters. More than a half - 6,000 square meters - are occupied by clothes stores. The department store will also include one food store, as well as footwear, cosmetics, household equipment and other stores, as well as cafes and restaurants.
Other parts of the multifunctional complex will be launched later - a movie theater and the building's 5th and 6th floors - will be launched later.
