Over a five-year operational period, the facility’s operators reported a significant financial upturn, noting that annual revenue in 2025 surpassed the initial year’s figures by more than EUR 1.1 million. Visitor traffic also demonstrated growth, with the food court welcoming 1.37 million visitors in 2025, an increase from 1.23 million recorded in 2022. According to Anželika Šiško, Head of Re, the period presented substantial hurdles for the business model.
Operations commenced amidst pandemic restrictions and subsequently navigated a complex economic environment. These challenges included the impact of the conflict in Ukraine, periods of double-digit inflation, alterations in tax legislation, and the recent fuel price volatility. Šiško stated that the ability to boost both revenue and visitor counts despite such uncertain conditions validates the established business strategy.
She credited the success to a focus on building community engagement and implementing flexible operational solutions. The reported increases suggest that the site has successfully adapted to fluctuating external pressures. The sustained growth in patronage and revenue indicates a resilient market presence capable of weathering macroeconomic instability over the past five years.
