This store was the largest SPAR store in Finland in terms of sales area and was opened on 20 April 1999.[1][2] The Eurospar store in Espoon keskus was changed into an S-Market in 2006 after the S-Group had acquired the entirety of the stock of Suomen Spar.[3]

The shopping centre has about 40 businesses and 17 thousand square metres of leasable business space.
