In the first half of 2020, MINISO increased its speed of expansion in the European market, opening new stores in Spain, Romania, Hungary, Turkey, and the Netherlands. It is expected that MINISO will open three new stores in Malta and increase the number of product SKUs to 4000 for the rest of the year, while also serving customers a wider product range.
