Auchan Poczesna Shopping Centre is owned by Ceetrus Polska, and the Nhood Services Poland team is responsible for managing the facility, commercialisation and creating a rich programme of activities for customers.
From Saturday 16 December, customers of the Auchan Poczesna Shopping Centre can shop in the specialist pet shop Maxi Zoo. In the comfortable, spacious Maxi Zoo shop with an area of more than 380 square metres, you can buy the products you need on a daily basis to feed and care for your pets.

A free pet bar has been set up in the shop, with food and water bowls and a scale to weigh your pet. In addition, Maxi Zoo shops have special donation bins so that everyone can support a local shelter or foundation. The donations are given to animals in need.
– I am pleased that the Maxi Zoo brand has appreciated the advantages of the Auchan Poczesna Shopping Centre and has chosen our shopping centre as the location for its shop. I am convinced that the Maxi Zoo shop will quickly gain the interest of customers and win their loyalty,” says Aleksandra Złotek, Property Manager of the Auchan Poczesna Shopping Centre.
The chain of specialist pet shops Maxi Zoo has been present in Poland since 2012 and currently comprises more than 110 locations in over a dozen cities in Poland. No animals are sold in Maxi Zoo chain shops. The brand encourages customers to visit with their charges, making it easier to choose accessories such as collars, harnesses and leashes. From 2019, the chain is also selling online and providing its own app, which allows customers to take advantage of attractive discounts and special offers. In 2021, Maxi Zoo Poland won the “Best Stationary Store” title in the TOP FOR DOG competition for the seventh time.
The brand’s philosophy and the chain’s entire business concept has been based on values underpinned by the belief that “animals enrich our lives day by day and that is what unites us”. Consistently pursuing this idea, the chain carries out active animal welfare activities. Since the beginning of its activity in Poland, Maxi Zoo has been involved in a number of charitable social actions and helps homeless animals. Cooperation with shelters, volunteering, support for responsible adoption, cooperation with GOPR, OTOP or the Animal Warden are among the company’s most important CSR activities in Poland.
