Details
The new Marktkauf store concept combines tradition and modernity, reflecting three hallmarks of Herten’s history: mining, castles, and nature. Design elements such as blast furnaces, gasometers, pulleys, and winding towers meet decorative architecture and stucco details. Sustainability is expressed through colours, materials, and a variety of regional products. The focus is on fresh food departments. At Hoppenwall, a 4,500 sqm modern shopping experience is created that revitalises the region, provides 75 new jobs, and reduces the ecological footprint with smart shopping, e-charging stations, and short paths from field to shelf.
