Osiander Schwäbisch Gmünd: bigger, brighter, new shine from November!

Marktplatz 32, 73525 Schwäbisch Gmünd, Deutschland - in Schwäbisch Gmünd something is happening: The popular bookstore Osiander is planning a move that makes the book lovers listen to the region. From November 2025, the new branch will open at Marktplatz 32, in the former depot area. The previous location on Marktplatz 19-21, which opened in 2019, will then close its doors, but not more than the new address. So the culinary book paradise for the Schwäbisch Gmünder remains accessible during the move.

The move brings with it some changes. With almost 380 square meters, the sales area at the new address will be significantly larger than the previous 220 square meters. Osiander has proven a good hand for this investment of 400,000 euros. Managing Director Christian Riethmüller emphasizes that the larger premises can offer customers more space, selection and a pleasant atmosphere. The new equipment should convince with a high -quality, bright shop device and an attractive range design.

new concept and wider selection

The far -reaching changes are not only due to the size of the new branch. Customers can look forward to a versatile game department and an exciting youth world. "The move is a necessity," says Riethmüller, "in particular due to the changed trade conditions according to Corona pandemic and the increasing costs." This new concept aims to further strengthen the Schwäbisch Gmünder downtown and to inspire customers even better.

Osiander will celebrate its 430th anniversary in the coming year, which is a suitable opportunity to set new impulses. In addition to the opening of the new branch, the facade of the new location is also renovated by the landlord in order to upgrade the entire house. The new premises should be completed in time for the Christmas business, so that the bookstore is prepared to receive its customers in a festive atmosphere.

sustainable strategic partnerships

Four years ago Osiander has already founded a partnership with Thalia in the areas of IT, online shop, purchasing and logistics. These strategic measures should also be useful at the new location and further enrich the offers for customers. The two companies are working to successfully survive in the increasingly dynamic book market and to offer bookworms in the Schwäbisch Gmünd area.

The previous rooms of the bookstore are only closed after the official opening of the new branch in order to make the transition as smoothly as possible. Osiander and the previous landlord are already looking for a subsequent tenant for the old sales area to secure the continuity of the book trade culture in the city.

Overall, the Osiander bookstore lets the Schwäbisch Gmünder Community look forward to a new chapter in the history of its presence. With a newly designed, modern room and a varied range, you build on the tradition and invite all readers to stop by soon. The anticipation for the opening is already noticeable, and the only question remains: How long does it take until the big opening?
