Woolworth opens in Forchheim on October 26th - great anticipation!
The Cologne region can look forward to a new attraction: Woolworth is opening a new branch in Forchheim. This exciting news was recently officially confirmed after the company struggled with lengthy delays. The opening will now take place on Boschstrasse and is scheduled for October 26, 2025. There is already great anticipation for this new shopping destination, which offers everything from household goods to clothing and toys at unbeatable prices.
With this new opening, Woolworth has taken another step in its expansion. Supermarkt Inside reports that the company already has over 750 stores in Germany, having recently opened its 750th store in the Rathaus Galerie in Essen. This store was not only an anniversary for Woolworths, but also a sign of how much the brand has grown in recent years.
Growing presence and plans for the future
Woolworth has already opened more than 100 new stores in Germany, Austria and Poland in 2024. In total, there are now over 10,000 everyday items and seasonal offers in the stores that are very popular with customers. The company has a clear goal of ultimately operating 5,000 stores in Europe. To this end, Woolworth plans to develop two more Eastern European countries in 2025.
The new stores are strategically located in city centers as well as specialty stores and shopping centers, always with a catchment area of around 20,000 residents. Woolworth is a company with an impressive history: The brand goes back to Frank Winfield Woolworth, who founded it in the USA in 1879. Today the company headquarters is located in Unna, where over 800 employees work and around 400 young talent are trained in 15 different professions every year.
The opening of the Forchheim branch on October 26, 2025 will certainly be accompanied by numerous special promotions. Customers can also look forward to offers such as free coupons for snacks and small competitions, which have already created excitement in other new stores. Nürnberger Nachrichten points out that these offers in the past have made the openings a real experience.
With each new store, Woolworth brings a breath of fresh air to the local supply landscape and revitalizes people's shopping habits. Whether in Forchheim or elsewhere, it seems as if Woolworth continues to have a good knack for choosing the right location and approaching customers.
