英国冰岛超市连锁宣布,将于12月初在福克兰群岛首府斯坦利开设分店,成为首个在该英国领土开店的英国高街零售品牌 1。冰岛超市将与当地零售商Kelper Stores合作运营此项目 1。冰岛超市董事长理查德·沃克表示:"福克兰群岛是英国大家庭的特殊部分,亲自到访开店是我的荣幸" 1。
这一举动恰逢地缘政治局势紧张之际。阿根廷总统米莱近日加强了对福克兰群岛的主权声索,并承诺对在该地区开采石油的公司进行制裁 1。阿根廷政府已确认将对以色列能源公司Navitas Petroleum及其高管提起刑事控告 1。此外,本地渔业公司Fortuna与丹麦公司F-land ApS建立的三文鱼养殖场合作计划也面临当地反对 1。
Iceland, the British supermarket chain, has announced plans to open its first store in the Falkland Islands, marking a significant expansion into the British territory.1 The new branch will launch in Stanley, the capital of the Falkland Islands, in early December through a partnership with local retailer Kelper Stores, making Iceland the first UK high street brand to establish operations in the region.1
Richard Walker, the chairman of Iceland, stated that "the Falkland Islands are a special part of the British family, and it is an honour to visit and open a store there."1 The expansion comes at a time of heightened geopolitical tensions surrounding the territory, as Argentine President Javier Milei has intensified sovereignty claims over the Falkland Islands and has vowed to impose sanctions on companies operating in the region's oil sector.1 The Argentine government confirmed on Monday that it would bring criminal charges against Israeli energy company Navitas Petroleum and its executives.1
