Operations
[edit]Pepita maintains country-level storefronts in Hungary, Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria and Croatia. By the first quarter of 2024 it worked with about 1,500 active third-party vendors.[3] Besides the core domains the group runs the deal site black.friday.hu and the parenting portal babafalva.hu.[4]
Scale
