Ready for the future, firmly rooted locally
Local anchoring remains a strong asset, and customers will immediately notice this in the refurbished store. They will discover a wide range of regional products: from Adept beer, brewed just 500 metres from the store, to apples, pears, eggs and potatoes from Herent. Apple juice from Bertem and honey from Winksele also have a prominent place in the assortment. In this way, Spar offers products that truly honour local craftsmanship and heritage.
Even more room for flavour
In the refurbished store, everything revolves even more around freshness and craftsmanship. The fresh assortment has been expanded, with additional focus on what brings flavour to the table every day. The bakery now takes centre stage, with delicious bread you can smell as soon as you enter the store. Behind the scenes, the butcher’s and delicatessen workshop has been enlarged, resulting in a broader and more varied range, including home-made dishes. The butcher’s and bakery products, as well as cheese and charcuterie, therefore remain strong assets and true flavour highlights of the store.
Sustainable and future-oriented
At Colruyt Group, sustainability is a top priority. New, sustainable CO₂ refrigeration installations have been installed. In addition, a total of 236 solar panels will be placed, partly on the roof of the store and partly on that of the nearby school. Together, they will provide approximately 40% of the store’s annual energy requirements. On sunny summer days, the store will even operate almost entirely on solar energy.
Festive reopening
With this extensive refurbishment, Spar Winksele is resolutely choosing the future. “That’s the taste of enjoyment’ means enjoying delicious products, a pleasant shopping experience and a warm, family atmosphere where you are welcome seven days a week,” say Bert, Gert, Kristof and Erik. “We very much look forward to welcoming everyone again, and on Thursday 12 March we will celebrate with special offers and festive promotions.”
