Together with YouGov, we have carried out a study on sustainability in food consumption. The key questions were: What factors influence purchasing decisions for sustainable product ranges today? Are there differences when it comes to organic products, plant-based alternatives and regional products? The report, which is available in the Sustainability section of the REWE Group website, provides an insight into changes in consumer behaviour.

From 1 July 2026, nahkauf will be taking the next logical step in the further development of its promotional communications: printed leaflets will be phased out. The special offers will remain and will be available digitally at all times in future. As a retail chain belonging to REWE, nahkauf forms part of the digital offering on the REWE app and at rewe.de.

REWE's concept test for local supply in rural areas continues: under the name "Paolos nahkauf Box", there is now also a so-called "walk-in store" in Hofheim-Lorsbach. The operator and namesake is the local nahkauf retailer.

Toom has recently fully automated the small parts warehouse at the Fulfillment Centre (FFC) in Rodgau. Seven robots pack orders on their own. How does this work, what are the benefits and what has changed for colleagues and customers?

The crux of film music is that, at best, you don’t even notice it. Two wonderful films showing in cinemas this July make it a central element of the plot. First, there is the romantic thriller-comedy *The Piano Tuner*, which centres on a piano concerto composed especially for the film. Then there’s Pedro Almodóvar’s regular composer, Alberto Iglesias, who weaves his harmonies around a classic by the Mexican singer Chavela, turning *A Bitter Feast* into an aural delight. Orchestrated drama also awaits viewers in the 10-part remake of the psychological thriller “Cape of Fear”, starring Amy Adams and Javier Bardem, on Apple TV.

Dreams and displaced reality - sometimes brightly coloured, sometimes eerily dark - as a connection between the Far East and France is not often found in cinema. All the more reason for viewers to take the opportunity in May to indulge in two exceptionally beautiful examples of this mixture. On the one hand, there is the French animated film "Little Amélie or the Character of Rain", which tells the story of a Belgian toddler in Japan and reflects on it at the same time. On the other hand, Chinese author and director Bi Gan offers his audience an immersive dream world with "Resurrection", which was honoured at the Cannes Film Festival. And the Franco-German broadcaster arte brings viewers back down to earth with the six-part drama series "Etty".

In terms of media, this spring will be colourful, exciting, emotional and international. In the cinema, for example, audiences can look forward to "Eagles of the Republic", a Swedish excursion into the classic film world of Egypt, including a political thriller. An exceptionally courageous life in rural Scotland is portrayed in "Cursed Normal", including an award. And arte.tv serves up a detour into the culinary underworld of Iceland in the six courses of "Reykjavík Fusion".
