Maxima Latvija operated with EUR 13.9 million in profit last year, which was by 21% less than in 2013, when the company posted EUR 17.74 million in profit.

The company also re-constructed three supermarkets in 2014 in Madona, Jelgava and Riga, as well as opened new supermarkets in Kraslava, Salaspils, as well as two in Riga.
Maxima Latvija was established on November 29, 2000. The company's share capital is EUR 4.91 million. Maxima Latvija's parent company is the Lithuania-registered Vilniaus Prekyba UAB, which in turn belongs to the Netherlands-registered Lincoln Land Erste B.V..
