A new retail concept opened its doors today at Bremen Airport: Micromarket24's "MarktGo" self-service supermarket offers over 150 everyday items, local specialties, and non-food products across 1200 square meters. This store is one of the first fully automated supermarkets at a German airport and, with its supermarket-like prices and extended opening hours from 4:00 a.m. to 23:30 p.m., is aimed at travelers as well as the local population and professionals in the airport area.

The opening of MarktGo in Terminal 1 was celebrated by representatives of Bremen Airport and Micromarket24. Dr. Marc Cezanne of Bremen Airport emphasized that this innovative micromarket represents an enrichment for local shopping and, at the same time, is a showcase for Bremen's attractiveness as a location. Konrad Best, the airport's Commercial Director, added that MarktGo represents a flagship project that is immediately noticeable upon arrival and departure.

Access to the store is via card scanning at the entrance. Sales are self-sufficient; a small team manages stocking and adapting the product range to local demand. Payment for purchases is made contactless and cashless at self-service checkouts. Security is ensured by modern AI camera technology that analyzes activity in real time and reacts to unusual incidents such as theft or vandalism.

The operators of Micromarket24, a company from Baden-Württemberg, emphasize the regional ties of their new location. For example, employees are wearing "Moin Bremen" T-shirts for the opening, and the store is decorated in a Bremen design. There are plans to increasingly include local products such as honey and eggs in the range in the future. Specialty coffee from the Bremen roastery Azul is already available. Souvenirs and fan merchandise from local sports clubs will also soon be available, in addition to travel-specific items such as neck pillows and headphones. The founders of Micromarket24 expressed their gratitude for the airport team's support in quickly implementing the project and are optimistic about the collaboration in Bremen.
