Lonia has been acquired by Studenac
June 2022 — Lonia Trgovina, the leading retail chain in the smaller, convenience format category, has been acquired by Studenac, the fastest growing retail chain in Croatia.
Lonia has a retail network of more than 300 stores (80 of them owned by the Jaram family) and a turnover of over US$110 million. More than 30% of the stores operate within the Zagreb metropolitan area, where Studenac had a limited presence.
