History
edit
Tempo was founded in 2003, with headquarters located in Belgrade, Serbia. The first Tempo store, with 8,000 m2 (86,000 sq ft) of floor space, opened in Belgrade in 2004. Three more Tempo Cash and Carry stores were built and opened in 2006: one in Niš and in Novi Sad with 6,000 m2 (65,000 sq ft) of floor space, and another one in Belgrade (Kvantaš) with 8,500 m2 (91,000 sq ft) of floor space respectively.
The first Tempo was opened on July 15, 2004 in Viline Vode.
In June 2012, Marc Ernest Garofani was appointed Tempo's director.
Since August 2014, Maxi and Tempo is no longer operating in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The company Tropic Group from Banja Luka bought the 39 Tempo and Maxi supermarkets from Delhaize.[1]
The Tempo store in Ada was the first store to be renamed Mega Maxi, followed by those in Niš, Čačak and Kragujevac. The remaining stores were renamed in 2023.[2]
