Modernization with character: industrial chic at EDEKA Brinkmann

Who says you always have to build something new to create a state-of-the-art shopping experience? EDEKA Brinkmann in Bad Bodenteich is the perfect counterexample. Since July 2024, the store has been shining in a design that shows how existing stores can be completely redefined with a well-thought-out shopfitting concept.

A concept with a clear line

In collaboration with the designers at ShopZwo , a style was implemented that is instantly appealing: industrial chic. Clean lines meet a mix of materials that perfectly balances modernity and comfort.

The common thread? A consistent design that runs through every department—from the fruit section to the checkout.

Industrial accents: Expanded metal serves as a cool counterpart. Its use as a background for product range signage is particularly striking. Es the shopfitting robust, urban touch.
