    Coop expands Marktgass Bern

    The branch of the Coop Group Marktgass Bern has a total sales area of 2100 square meters, informs the retail cooperative from Basel in a message . Since May, customers have been able to use the upper floor with a supermarket, a beauty island, a vinotheque and a beer and beverage world. Now the ground floor of the listed building has also been completely converted. Here Coop has set up a coffee bar with its own roastery, a bakery, a kiosk and various services.

    "The result is a piece of jewelry that leaves nothing to be desired and enriches the shopping offer in the city center," File Gjokaj is quoted in the press release. The managing director of the Marktgass Bern branch also points out the open kitchen area in the coffee bar: “A lot is homemade and prepared right in front of the customer's eyes.” All products are available both to take away and for consumption on site.

    In the future, “in the Coop Marktgass Bern, shopping will also meet movement”, the announcement further explains. A fitness update will be available in the basement in September. Around 1,400 square meters of space are available for this.

  • Obwalden companies help shape the supermarket of the future

    Obwalden companies help shape the supermarket of the future

    Tegut… gute Lebensmittel GmbH & Co. KG is a German subsidiary of the Migros retailer. The company currently operates primarily supermarkets that focus on organic products. Now it is also testing a new store concept. The new supermarket is open around the clock and has no cashiers. Customers can scan their items and pay by app or credit card. The store is monitored with several cameras and 3D sensors.

    For the design and construction of the first test shop in Fulda, tegut… gute Lebensmittel GmbH & Co. KG obtained specialist knowledge from Obwalden. The 50 square meter store was co-developed and realized by Neue Holzbau AG and HP Gasser AG , both from Lungern OW, according to a joint communication. Specifically, the two companies built the shop out of four elements. The finished shop was then delivered to Fulda by special transport. First and foremost, the companies rely on wood, invisible steel parts and the high-performance lanyard GSA.

    The label “Made in Lungern” has proven itself well in Germany, according to the announcement. Among other things, the first test shop won the 2020 Retail Innovation Prize. This is also thanks to the support of the Obwalden economic development agency.
