New shopping paradise in Innsbruck: Local dealers in focus!

Innsbruck, Österreich - in Innsbruck, the former Raiffeisen Passage between the main train station and Bozner Platz has transformed into a new project, which is supplemented by the Raiffeisenlandesbank (RLB) and a hotel. The project, which cost a proud 155 million euros, aims to promote small local companies in addition to shops. According to Claudia Huber, the manager of Raiqa, the endeavor is clear: "We are clearly addressing local entrepreneurs. We would like to focus on regional products and services." This could be a real opposite pole to the large international chains, which often shape the picture in the city center. The goal is to regain the pedestrian frequency of up to 10,000 people every day who frequented the passage beforehand in order to support new business.

growing vacancy and new concepts

While new plans take shape, the number of shops in Innsbruck drops. After the bankruptcy of Kika, the last branch in Tyrol had to close in Neu-Rum, and the Gigasport branch in the east of Innsbruck also withdraws. Roman Eberharter, the Gremial Chairman of Electrical and Furniture Trade, speaks of a tense situation, particularly triggered by the high density of trading areas and associated vacancies. "It is a shame if well -known areas are empty in downtown locations," emphasizes Eberharter, who calls for a joint effort of trade, business and politics to find solutions.

The new concept of Raiqa, which is scheduled to open in one year, relies on diversity: planned companies such as bakeries, flower shops and wine dealers should shape the picture. The demand for commercial properties in Innsbruck remains high, since the city continues to attract attractiveness due to its location between Munich and Verona, as well as the strong economic basis through universities and companies.
