According to company boss Holger Blecker, the Stuttgart fashion company Breuninger will probably generate more than one billion euros in sales for the first time this year.
"Including the stationary business, Breuninger is expected to turn over significantly more than two billion euros by the middle of the decade," said Blecker of "Welt am Sonntag".
Stuttgart - By 2025, more than 1.5 billion euros should flow into the coffers through online sales alone.
Nevertheless, the entrepreneur continues to count the branch network at the core of the business concept.
“I am firmly convinced that people want to keep meeting each other and experience great moments together.
The city center plays a central role in this. "

Breuninger has around a dozen department stores.
Another large department store is planned for 2023 in Hamburg, reported the "WamS".
Because of the corona-related closings in the spring, the company lost a three-digit million amount in sales, said Blecker.
However, the online business has already increased by more than 50 percent last year.
A similar development can be expected for 2021.
If the interplay between trade, gastronomy, culture and politics is right, the cities and dealers have a huge chance, said the Breuninger boss.
He called for liberalization of the Sunday opening.
The topic urgently needs to be tackled.
