Holiday Closures: Which Stores Will Be Open on Monday?

Croatia is observing the Day of Anti-Fascist Struggle on Monday, June 22, a public holiday that will see the vast majority of retail stores closed across the country. This widespread closure affects major supermarket chains, including Konzum, Kaufland, Lidl, Plodine, Spar, and Interspar, all of which have decided to give their employees the day off.

The vast majority of sales outlets will have their doors locked tomorrow.

Customers are advised to complete their shopping before the holiday, as most stores, and even online services like Konzum's delivery and Drive-in, will be unavailable. Konzum will only have a few selected stores operating under special hours, with a list available on their website. German discounters Kaufland and Lidl will completely shut down all their branches, with no exceptions.

This decision does not only apply to physical stores but also to online services, so neither Konzum's delivery nor Drive-in service will be available on Monday.

While most large retailers will be closed, there are a few exceptions. The Tommy chain will keep two of its markets open: one in Ston and another in Zadar. These will operate under regular hours. The KTC chain, known for its consistent policy of closing on Sundays and holidays since 2020, will also remain closed. Smaller neighborhood stores, bakeries with rotating shifts, and gas station shops are likely candidates for those needing last-minute items, though relying on these for major shopping is not recommended. Major shopping centers in Zagreb, such as Arena Centar and Avenue Mall, will also be entirely closed.

The only two stores that will operate according to regular working hours will be Tommy market in Ston... and Tommy supermarket in Zadar...
