Shops in Berlin must also be allowed to open on Sundays

By Larissa Hoppe

The first shopping Sundays of 2023 in Berlin have been set. A comment from Larissa Hoppe, deputy BZ editor-in-chief.

Four dates have already been set, up to four more could come.

What is welcome Sunday entertainment for customers can be an important business day for brick-and-mortar retailers.

Whether Berliners or tourists – one or the other euro can be earned on the fringes of events and trade fairs.

Important in times when more and more people are shopping on the Internet and branches are increasingly disappearing from the cityscape.

How desolate would Berlin be without boutiques or large brand name department stores.

In order to remain competitive, shops must also be allowed to open on Sundays. Ideally also every Sunday – if you wish.
