Salò has announced the reopening of the supermarket on Via San Bernardino, scheduled for the Easter period, following a significant modernization phase. The former Italmark store, located in a strategic position overlooking Piazza Leonardo da Vinci, was closed last year, sparking strong protests among local residents. The community expressed its discontent over the closure, prompting the municipal administration to intervene and initiate discussions to emphasize the social importance of the store, particularly for the elderly in the area.
After months of waiting and discussions, the confirmation of the reopening was communicated through posters displayed outside the building. The supermarket will operate again under the Despar brand, once again providing a vital service to the citizens of Salò. The renovation work is expected to be completed in the coming days, thus ensuring a return to normalcy for residents of the historic center and surrounding areas.
