Spill room in the Zimbapark closes: What's next?

Bürs, Österreich - The Handl Speckstube in the Zimbapark in Bürs has closed its gates after more than 20 years. The ground floor restaurant has been empty since November 2023, and the closure marks the end of an important chapter in the history of the shopping center. Walter Simma, Center Manager of the Zimbapark, confirms that several interested parties are available for the area. The entrance to the bacon room is currently covered, the windows are taped, and the business premises are located between the Italian "Da Pinto" and "Jack & Jones".

The bacon room has been a fixture since the opening of the Zimbapark in 2002. However, their withdrawal is part of a larger corporate strategy that has resulted in similar closures in other locations such as Bludenz, Dornbirn and Schruns in recent years. The location in Bürs was one of the last of the Handl Tyrol Speckstuben.

The future of the Zimbapark

The decision about the new tenant should be made in the next few weeks. Unlike in the past, the Zimbapark does not plan an immediate arrival of a new tenant, but rather rely on a strategically sensible range of assortment to further increase the attractiveness of the center, as https://www.vol.at/kein-im-zimbapark-wir-wirichten-partner/9421013) reports.

The change in retail

The withdrawal of the Handl Speckstube in the Zimbapark is part of a larger change in the retail landscape. In Europe, shopping centers are increasingly transforming into multifunctional places that promote social interactions. Projects such as the renovation of the Kings Mall in Hammersmith or the reopening of "The Playce" in Berlin show that modern shopping sites are increasingly accepting experience and providing a wide range of offers, including gastronomy, entertainment and retail jll.de.

This trend towards experience retail would also be relevant for the Zimbapark, since strategic range supplements and adapting to modern needs are crucial for the number of visitors. The decision to reuse the area of the bacon room is therefore expected with great attention.
