Olympia Brno

Olympia Brno is the principal South Moravian super-regional shopping centre at U Dálnice 777 in Modřice immediately south of Brno, opened in 1999 with subsequent expansion phases producing the contemporary 102,000-sqm super-regional format spanning approximately 200 retail and service units. The property is owned and managed by Sonae Sierra, the Portuguese-headquartered European shopping centre operator, as the principal Czech Sonae Sierra anchor and one of the largest shopping centres in the Czech Republic by total leasable area positioning the asset within the principal Czech trophy retail property register.

The format combines the Tesco hypermarket grocery anchor with the principal international and Czech vertical fashion register featuring H&M, Reserved, Cropp, Sinsay, the Inditex Zara, Pull&Bear, Bershka, Stradivarius, and Massimo Dutti flagship presence, alongside the broader European fashion programming. The Cinema City multi-screen multiplex anchor, the Sportisimo athletic flagship, the Datart and Electro World consumer electronics anchors, the Smyk children’s specialty, the dedicated dining circuit and food court, the Sephora and Douglas premium beauty positions, the bowling alley entertainment, and the broader retail-and-services programming complete the contemporary South Moravian super-regional offer.

The catchment combines the dense southern Brno residential demographic of the Modřice, Bohunice, and Štýřice suburban districts with the broader South Moravian metropolitan concentration of approximately 380,000 city residents and 730,000 metropolitan residents drawing from the principal South Moravian consumer cluster and the cross-border Slovak and Austrian traffic. Direct accessibility includes the principal D1 motorway access at the Modřice interchange, the D2 motorway access from the Bratislava corridor, the D52 motorway access from the Vienna corridor, the dedicated parking infrastructure for approximately 4,500 vehicles, and the integrated bus network connecting from central Brno positioning the property as the principal South Moravian motorway-anchored super-regional gateway.

Sonae Sierra coordinates the property management of Olympia Brno within its broader European retail real estate portfolio of approximately 50 shopping centres across Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece, Romania, Germany, and the Czech Republic. The asset’s commercial role within the Czech retail map is the principal South Moravian super-regional motorway-anchored fashion destination and one of the largest shopping centres in the Czech Republic by GLA, complementing rather than competing with the larger 125,000-sqm OC Letňany Union Investment northern Prague regional and the 102,000-sqm Westfield Chodov URW southern Prague flagship, the 85,000-sqm Avion Shopping Park Brno Ingka Centres south-Brno retail-park, the 30,000-sqm Galerie Vaňkovka G City Europe central Brno urban regional, and the broader South Moravian metropolitan retail register.
