It has started dismantling of never completed shopping center in the Zagreb neighborhood of Špansko, which was once built by the French retail chain Leclerc. What failed one of the leading European traders, and from which, when he was strongest entrepreneur in the region abandoned even Ivica Todorić, now is in the hands of Zagreb company Sensa Nekretnine, which intends to build Shopping Center Špansko on this location.

New shopping center will have over 30,000 square meters of surface area, 90 stores of various purposes, multiplex cinema with 9 rooms, entertainment and catering facilities and so on. Based on comparable projects, it can be roughly estimated that it is a matter of investment of around 150 million euros, but we have not been able to determine the sources.

The investor, namely, newly founded company Sensa Nekretnine, whose basic capital of 300,000 kuna. Founders are Branimir Vuletić, Oliva Vrbanek and Mirko Pavičić. President of the Board is Matija Vrbanek, who in a telephone conversation did not want to say anything related to the sources of money for such a large investment.

In fact, we were only able to learn from him that the company Sensa Nekretnine land and abandoned Leclerc object, in Zagreb known as "coffin", bought from the company Heta and that the Shopping Center Špansko will be finished and open by the end of 2019.

Leclerc was one of the first foreign retail chains that wanted to enter Croatia. Towards the end of the 90s, the French acquired about 60,000 square meters of land in Špansko and built an object, but were not allowed to get a permit because they failed to buy a small plot in the middle of the land for which the owner claimed 2 million euros. Finally, they gave up in 2002 and withdrew from the project and from Croatia.

Eight years later, the land, together with the disputed plot, bought Agrokor, who would have intended to finish Leclerc object, expand and partially transform it. That project provided that besides the commercial part, there would be wellness and sports facilities. But Todorić did not find a partner for this investment and sold the land and Leclerc object.
