Essence
Gopak is a grocery shop at Komunardů 1129/27 in Prague’s Holešovice district, listing Ukrainian and Caucasian products. A directory gives business ID 27911471. The direct ARES record was checked on 2 November 2026, but its connection with the shop remains unverified. It must not be classified as a restaurant. The entity’s creation date of 6 June 2007 does not establish the shop’s opening date. Media and map data remain blocked.

Full research text
Classifying Gopak
Firmy.cz lists Gopak under “Prodej potravin”, meaning grocery retail. The word “speciality” does not justify classifying it as a restaurant. Until a separate check is made, the website needs the fields grocery_venue and dining_service=false. [GO115-01]
The trading address
Commercial directories and Waze give Komunardů 1129/27, Praha 7-Holešovice. This is the shop's location (location_of_shop), rather than an established residence or legal registered address of the entrepreneur. Precise coordinates require separate verification and approval. [GO115-01; GO115-03]
The business identifier
The shop's profile gives registration number 27911471. The direct government ARES record, checked on 2 November 2026, contains this number and an entity creation date of 6 June 2007. The record alone does not establish that this entity operates the Gopak shop; that connection requires separate confirmation. [GO115-01; GO115-02]
The product range and cultural role
The Firmy.cz description names products from Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Kazakhstan and other countries. The shop's story may therefore concern Prague's culinary diversity, but should not be reduced to a single ethnic or political identity. [GO115-01]
The problem of the founding date
The direct ARES record for registration number 27911471 gives an entity creation date of 6 June 2007. It is not a document establishing when the specific shop on Komunardů opened, which could have happened later. The start of trading at the shop remains unconfirmed. [GO115-02]
Current directory status
In 2026, Gopak appears on Firmy.cz and Waze with contact details and opening hours. This is corroboration in two directories, rather than proof that the physical shop is open at the moment of a visit. A different source is needed for last_verified_on_site. [GO115-01; GO115-03]
A shared district with The Boršč
The Boršč and Gopak are both in Holešovice, but belong to different categories, restaurant and grocery retail, and have different publicly listed registration numbers. The software model must not generate a “shared owner” relationship from a shared district alone. [GO115-01]
Responsible representation
The public description should characterise the establishment's offering and role, rather than assume the ethnicity of its owner or customers. Limiting the personal data published is especially important for a small business. Matching registration numbers does not replace verification of the connection between the registered entity and the shop. [GO115-02]
Reviews as supplementary evidence
Dated reviews help trace a brand's presence on the map. They do not establish legal status, the exact opening year, trading volume or product quality in a scholarly sense. Ratings are not transferred into the cultural dossier. [GO115-01; GO115-04]
