The reopened Albert will offer customers a shopping area of 3,800 sqm and an expanded assortment. The store also has modern cooling and freezing facilities technology with temperature sensors, which monitor the optimal temperature and thus the quality of the goods, and at the same time save energy. Efficient LED lighting limits electricity consumption and reduces the carbon footprint. Electronic price tags save paper and work for employees. With these innovations implemented the store will save more than a third of energy.

In the new hypermarket, there are self-service cash registers and the Albert Scan service, which allows customers to scan products directly during the purchase and put them in the shopping bag right away.
