We are all groaning under the high food prices. The discounters and discount offers are booming again. Now the head of Edeka has turned to the public and accused the manufacturers of price gouging.In the newly flared up dispute over purchase prices, Edeka CEO Markus Mosa accuses the large food manufacturers of clearly excessive demands. „For 2023, we again have massive price demands from the large brand-name groups on the table. And this is in addition to the price increases that were already implemented in Germany last year. Year after year, large chains such as Edeka, Rewe, Aldi and Lidl haggle bitterly with suppliers over conditions. I think it’s good that the supermarkets want to stand firm.

The department stores‘ operator Galeria Karstadt Kaufhof is preparing for the time after the insolvency proceedings with a new concept.
According to the information, the business model is to be changed in such a way that the management of the individual stores will have more decision-making authority. The assortment of the individual shops will also be differentiated more strongly from location to location in the future.

It will occupy a three-level store at 169-173 Regent Street, and will open on Feb. 10. On co-founder David Allemann said, „“Swiss Engineering to us means we love engineering and the natural world. In our Regent Street store, we have combined the two in innovative and surprising ways. On display for the first time will be the retailer’s full range of men’s and women’s collections.“
In more than 200 branches of the Dutch supermarket chain „Jumbo“, the so-called Kletskassa, which means chatty checkout, was introduced. At this checkout, everything goes slower and more leisurely. The concept is designed to give people the opportunity to talk to each other and gossip a little. And all without stress and „Second checkout!“ shouts. A test phase has already begun in 2019.
