In the new OKay Compact, customers will also be able to choose from a broad assortment of takeaway products, such as sandwiches and coffee, and compose their own salad at thesalad bar. Afterwards, they will also be able to enjoy the pasta bar that will open in the store on 19/4.

Molenbeek in the spotlight

OKay Compact went to meet local residents to find out their stories and those of the neighbourhood, because nothing is more natural than for a local supermarket to want to discover its neighbours. Passers-by took part in the game and their stories, full of love for the region, can be discovered in the store's opening newspaper.

The new OKay Compact will be led by City Manager Bart. He and his team of 7 co-workers are at your disposal if you need help or have any questions. They will be happy to help you with a smile.
