Matahari Department Store (MDS) opened a new store in Indonesia’s Singkawang, West Kalimantan, to tap the economy prospects in the region, the publicly-listed company said in a statement on Thursday.
The store, called Matahari Singkawang Grand Mall – MDS’s 13th store in Kalimantan – has a total area of 6,300 square metres. The store is the first new location MDS has opened this year.
“The presence of Matahari at Singkawang Grand Mall is expected to benefit citizens in its surrounding area, hiring 322 employees, the majority of whom are locals,” Matahari human resources director Andre Rumantir said.
