About Groszek

A Polish neighbourhood store on Ganzeweide in Heerlen.

How it started

Groszek opened in Heerlen because Parkstad had no shop where you could buy real Polish kabanosy, fresh twaróg or a box of Ptasie Mleczko without driving for an hour. We started with a row of fridges and a handful of trusted suppliers. Customers brought patience. We gave back quality and access.

Today there are more shelves, fresh Polish bread and pastries every day and the store is open seven days a week. What stayed the same: suppliers we know, deliveries through the week and staff who help in three languages.

What drives us

For our Polish customers, Groszek is coming home. For Dutch and German customers, it is discovery. That is not a marketing line, it is what happens at the counter every day.

Three principles

Real, not import-chic

No price list with invented names. We sell what you would buy at a Lewiatan or Biedronka, at a price that works.

Neighbourhood first

We know our regulars by name. We order products on request. We know which family eats what.

Accessible from three sides

Polski, Nederlands, English. Our store sits ten minutes from the German border. For those coming from further away: parking is free.
