Das Geschäftsrisiko der EDEKA Minden-Hannover Gruppe wird von Scope Hamburg als moderat bis gering eingeschätzt.

Als bedeutendste Regionalgesellschaft des Marktführers im deutschen Lebensmitteleinzelhandel verfügt die Gruppe aus Sicht der Ratingagentur über eine gute Ausgangsposition, um sich in dem wettbewerbsintensiven Umfeld erfolgreich behaupten zu können.
