Boa Vista was the area chosen to house the second division of Grupo Koch in Joinville. This Thursday (6th) will see the opening of the 50th store in Santa Catarina, with another store coming soon in the north of Santa Catarina.
The brothers and the group’s managers have confirmed their arrival at Araquari, which will open in October. The location has also already been determined: the banks of the BR-280, not far from Volta Redonda. Strategic as it includes the route of many holidaymakers towards Sao Francisco do Sul.

It should be one of the largest stores, which will create about 300 jobs.
President José Koch celebrates his presence in the region and does not exclude that more stores will appear in Joinville. The city for him has a very strong consuming power.
Today, with 50 stores, Koch Group has 7,000 employees and forecasts revenue of 5 billion reais in 2022.
The five Koch brothers, who began working in the street markets in the 80s, inspire and delight with their development, alliance and dedication to customers and their employees.
