The chain operates 64 outlets in all small settlements in the country, as well as smaller towns which are not, except for Aasiaat, covered by the Pisiffik or Brugsen supermarket chains.[4] The stores in remote settlements are supplied by Royal Arctic Line but the intervals between the shipments are long, with some settlements like Ittoqqortoormiit and Qaanaaq only served twice a year.[5]

Post and banking

Pilersuisoq stores have an integrated

Bank of Greenland.[6]

Duty-free

Pilersuisoq also operates the duty-free stores at the Kangerlussuaq Airport and Narsarsuaq Airport,[7] although as of August 2010 the future of all duty-free stores in Greenland (including a stand at Kulusuk Airport) is uncertain due to budget cuts considered by the Government of Greenland. By 2013 the pre-2010 rules regarding duty-free sales had been restored.[8]
