"Wzorcownia is a unique project, both in terms of its excellent location in the heart of Wloclawek, and in terms of an appealing architectural design. We are very excited to unleash the potential of this center as we see a great capacity for growth and improvement.
"Our immediate objective is to increase the profile of Wzorcownia through an active marketing and branding strategy, to further grow footfall and sales for the mall's tenants," said Paul Kusmierz, Principal of Master Management Group.
