Mindful mobility, convenient shopping at STOP SHOP retail parks

Urban mobility has undergone a dramatic transformation in recent years; the number of cars in Hungary’s major cities is growing rapidly. In addition, with the rise of electric vehicles, the development of charging infrastructure is becoming an increasingly pressing issue. What sustainable solutions can we offer to meet the growing demand for mobility?

This is one of the key challenges addressed by the joint initiative of STOP SHOP and Parkl, which aims to make the future of urban mobility not only technologically advanced but also practically accessible for everyone.

STOP SHOP is one of Central and Eastern Europe’s leading retail park networks and is part of the CPI Property Group portfolio. It primarily serves towns with populations between 30,000 and 150,000, offering convenient and good-value shopping opportunities. Its locations are easy to reach, with simple and quick parking—making it a comfortable choice for those who value not only affordable prices, but also convenience, flexibility, and sustainability.

'Our goal is to ensure that our customers can enjoy their time at STOP SHOP retail parks without a care, which is why we offer sustainable additional services such as electric vehicle charging,' said Balázs Sipos, Senior Retail Asset Manager for STOP SHOP Hungary. 'Parkl was the ideal choice for upgrading our existing system, as it allows our customers to manage charging within a single, integrated platform, while giving us confidence that operations are in reliable hands.'

As part of the project, the infrastructure of 116 electric charging points was upgraded across 14 STOP SHOP retail parks nationwide. These can now be used via Parkl’s integrated digital platform. The modern 22 kW AC charging stations operate within a nationwide yet unified system, offering customers convenient charging at an affordable rate of 170 HUF/kWh.

With Parkl’s integrated digital mobility platform, charging electric vehicles is seamless in every situation—whether at home, at work, or in a retail park. Strategic collaborations like our partnership with CPI Hungary represent an important milestone for both Parkl and the advancement of e-mobility in Hungary. Our goal is to offer smart, sustainable digital solutions where they are truly needed.
