What Galerija Podova does

Galerija Podova is a Serbian specialty retail chain headquartered in Bačka Palanka, operating 40 stores across 32 cities in Serbia and Montenegro, complemented by a full e-commerce webshop at galerijapodova.com. The company sells flooring (finished parquet, laminate from Egger/Classen, LVT and SPC rigid flooring, vinyl — all Tarkett-exclusive — and artificial grass), textiles (carpets, rugs, wall-to-wall carpeting, custom-cut runners, doormats), home décor (wall panels, ready-made and custom curtains, curtain rods, wallpaper, decorative cushions, throws), and a sleep corner (mattresses and toppers). It also offers category-adjacent services: delivery, professional floor installation, custom cutting, hemming/binding, and curtain sewing. The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Tarkett Group, a global flooring manufacturer, and benefits from the exclusive supplier relationship for Tarkett vinyl products plus preferred brand partnerships with Pierre Cardin (carpets), Egger, and Classen.

The business model is direct-to-consumer retail with multi-channel fulfillment: physical store sales, online orders with in-store pickup, phone ordering where store staff prepare quotes or web orders on behalf of customers, and delivery (free for web orders above 20,000 RSD). Pricing is per square meter for flooring and per unit for carpets, with optional professional installation priced separately. Customer financing is provided through an exclusive banking partnership with Banca Intesa (up to 12 interest-free installments via credit cards, administrative prohibition, checks, or pensioner loans), and a loyalty program (Inspiration Card) adds a 5% discount. The primary customer segment is residential homeowners, with a secondary segment of commercial/B2B buyers seeking flooring for offices and retail spaces. Marketing blends content marketing (an extensive interior-design blog), seasonal promotions (New Year sales, Black Friday), and Instagram user-generated-content campaigns.
