Success needs
INFORMATION.

The challenges and opportunities for bakeries in Germany and Europe require new thinking and new concepts. Consumer, shopping and nutritional behavior, health awareness and convenience orientation: the changes are obvious. AICHINGER Managing Director Oliver Blank: "Whether it's a traditional bakery or a bakery chain in competition with food retailing and system gastronomy, the bakery companies have to develop further. Added to this is digitization with new options for store and branch management as well as the combination of stationary business and online shopping. For bakers, new opportunities arise in existing store concepts, but also with completely new convenience concepts. "Under the motto FIT FOR FUTURE, AICHINGER shows how bakers can transform market changes and trends into opportunities and business success - from the intelligent detailed solution to the holistic shop concept.

You can all find this at the AICHINGER exhibition stand:

New possibilities for sales promoting staging of breads and bakery products: This is how bread and bakery expertise are presented and successfully distinguishes itself between discount stores and system gastronomy.

Bakery Snack - the next level: Innovative bakery snacks that stand out from the competition - ultra fresh, for every taste. This turns market opportunities into sales and earnings.

Ambiance meets efficiency: Creative design, a light and feel-good atmosphere in harmony with efficient work processes that are functionally well thought-out so that the sales staff can master them perfectly in everyday life. That's how you attract customers and turn them into fans.

Aichinger "bakery of creativity": What the open view baking area at the bakery is, is the creative studio at the AICHINGER stand. AICHINGER’s creative people show live how tailor-made concepts are created, give first-hand tips and, upon request, even scribble their first ideas down on paper.

Aichinger 100% live: Everything that is shown at the iba is live, real and can be transferred 1:1 to the bakery. Aichinger also provides a full view behind the counter and into the preparation area. This is how success is furnished

EDEKA Kels was awarded the title of „Store of the Year 2018“, by the German Trade Association (HDE) at the end of January 2018. The prize was awarded during the trade real estate congress in Berlin, which took place at the end of January. After the wonderful implementation of the Markthalle Krefeld (real,-)project, our team from the AICHINER planning office in Haan again succeeded in setting a further highlight into the food retail sector. The market, which had once been the premises of an old machine factory, impressed the jury above all with its accomplished product presentation.  

After the REWE premium market in Munich (Fünf Höfe), which was awarded this title in 2017, EDEKA Kels is now the second AICHINGER customer to be awarded the title of „Store of the Year“, within the last 2 years. We congratulate our customer EDEKA Kels and everyone involved in this amazing project. 

This year‘s Internorga exhibition concept by AICHINGER is aimed at the group of new generation of operating companies providing gastronomic concepts, as well as bakers and butchers. The young talent from the „wild youth“, work very differently today and make handwork re-experienced and unique. Quality instead of quantity, class instead of mass! The young entrepreneur focuses more on their own history, on sophisticated marketing and especially on the origin and quality of their top-class products. With this storytelling around the operator’s portfolio, they create their own brand and skillfully set themselves apart from the competition. 

In their „Concept Factory“  at this year’s Internorga, AICHINGER shows how the stories surrounding this new generation of operators can be experienced through innovative concept ideas. The shop fittings and with them the atmosphere created by AICHINGER reflects the emotions of this new generation in the sleek design style. The minimalistic and clear design concept deliberately sets the products on display into the spotlight through the overall dark contrast. The design language of AICHINGER Concept Factory in concrete, solid black steel and Nero Assoluto expertly captures the warm cherry wood as a chosen extreme and could usher in a new trend in shop fitting – it definitely does not always have to be oak! 

In the presentation area for goods, top-class, glass showcases and backlit counter fronts with 3D effects underline the product’s staging. And visible from a distance, a display cabinet for dry aged beef highlights this trend in the butchery section.  Opposite, a 4 meter high wall, tiled in Nero Assoluto with an open rigato rock surface directs the guest’s attention to the display of delicate cakes and the impressive coffee bar at the center of the stand. In a minimum of space, a maximum live cooking experience with integrated outgoing air – this trend is served by the AICHINGER innovation ROG - ROLL´N´GRILL using clever, modern snack concepts which are presented to the public via live demonstrations. The ROG is a ready to plug in single unit for automatically grilling meat, fish and vegetables and is based on three rotating, horizontally arranged and uniformly heated frying surfaces. Visit our Concept Factory at the Internorga and learn more about the perfect presentation and staging of food.

He died suddenly and unexpectedly at the age of 61 during the night of the 5th to the 6th of January. He leaves behind his wife and two sons.

Dr. Hans-Georg Rummler joined Aichinger in July 2014 as Chairman of the Management Board and previously worked in responsible executive positions in various, larger companies. The sudden death of Dr. Hans-Georg Rummler has deeply shocked the management and all employees at Aichinger. His passing leaves behind a large hole in our company.

"We are shocked and very saddened by the sudden death of Dr. Rummler. Our thoughts and condolences are with his family and his relatives," says Günther Hertel, owner of Aichinger.

The competition is strong and ever changing, just like the purchasing behavior of their customers. Additionally there´s a growing lack of skilled personnel and climbing price pressure. Successful companies count on their strong base of traditional butchery and at the same time reinvent themselves with new products and services. This variety is what captures the customer. The individuality of hand crafted goods is what gives them their personal touch and assures the thriving of handicraft business.

Traditional baker, design oriented coffee shops or to-go specialists – the competition during the breakfast rush is fierce. In the baking industry this calls for creativity and modern thinking, aside from outstanding craftsmanship of course. In order to meet these demands it has proven to be vital to keep up with upcoming trends. Clients are becoming more and more demanding and expect an interesting and appetizing variety of snacks when visiting their bakery. The quick coffee to go and a small snack on the hand doesn´t suffice anymore. So a modern baking business has to be versatile and within its product range manage to capture the client’s attention and tempt him with his product presentation. But at the same never lose sight of its core skills and provide tasty breakfasts as well as a healthy lunch and varied dinner options.

The multi-specialist AICHINGER provides you with ideas and solutions how to meet new demands and pare them with innovative ideas. To help you visualize all the options AICHINGER can provide you with, you will also have the opportunity to experience a custom fitted design-concept, as well as modern snack possibilities (ROG – ROLL`N`GRILL + foottec) coupled with innovative coffee specialties.
