New Hornbach in Eisenstadt: Bau starts, 100 jobs for the region

In Eisenstadt, the corporate landscape takes on new forms. The construction of the first Hornbach construction and garden market in Burgenland has now started with a solemn groundbreaking. This new branch, which will be created on a spacious area of 16,175 square meters, has the plans to open its gates in autumn 2025. The location at the Haidäcker Park is supposed to compete with other hardware stores and is expected to be the largest in the region.

This expansion in Eisenstadt is not only a step for Hornbach, but will also bring significant economic impulses for the region. The new branch creates around 100 jobs and could thus become part of Burgenland's economic growth. "With today's groundbreaking, another chapter is opened in the success story of the region and the Burgenland business location," said State Councilor Leonhard Schnünemann.

modern shopping experiences

The new market will not only offer a variety of products, but will also convince with innovative service offers. Particular attention is paid to a drive-in for building materials, which enables customers to conveniently load bulky or heavy items directly into the vehicle. There are also features such as a garden market, aquaristics and pet needs, as well as a bathroom exhibition including a 3D planning option. "We attach great importance to an inpatient presence. The proximity to the citizens is just as important as our online shop," emphasized Erich Harsch, CEO of Hornbach Baumarkt AG.

By providing more than 200,000 articles that are either stationary or can be ordered online, a wide shopping experience is guaranteed.

sustainability in focus

Special attention is also paid to sustainability in this construction project. A photovoltaic system with an output of 350 kWp will significantly cover the energy requirement of the market. Innovative air conditioning takes place through an air heat pump. In addition, rainwater is used to irrigate the garden areas, which contributes to resource conservation. The greening of roof areas and parking spaces as well as planting over 60 trees and bushes represent further measures that should have a positive impact on the environment.

The investment in this new market testifies to the economic development of the region and could be a catalyst for further growth in Eisenstadt. More details can be found in a detailed report on this topic www.meinbezirk.at .
