JYSK recently opened a new store in the city of Kryvyi Rih that is known as Europe's longest city.

Around 400 kilometres south of Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, lies the city of Kryvyi Rih (or Krivoi Rog). The city extends for 126 km from north to south and is known as the longest city in Europe, perhaps in the world.

Recently the city of more than 650,000 inhabitants welcomed a new JYSK store to their neighbourhood. Retail Manager Kirill Romanchuk was there to take part in the opening, and he also took a few photos on the opening day.
