German retailer Edeka will open a new store at Stuttgart Airport, on Wednesday 10 August. In an area of circa 620 square meters, located at Terminal 3 (Arrivals), it will offer a selection of 8,000 products - ranging from A-brand to discount.
Using a promotional slogan along the lines of, ‘Here, you will land on your feet’, the store aims to target mainly customers 'en route' and Airport employees. It will offer a range of convenience foods, including pre-cut fruits, salads and freshly pressed take-away orange juice.
In addition, a self-service area will offer a selection of seasonal and regional products, to include fruit and vegetables, cheese, meats, breads and cakes, chocolates, wines and delicatessen.
To avoid queues, self-scanning checkouts have been installed and all types of credit card will be accepted. The new outlet will be open 365 days per year, between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.
Edeka has branches throughout Germany. The company has more than 43,000 employees.
