The 24/7 village store for your town
Shopping whenever it suits — early, late or at the weekend. A 24/7 village store from friedas makes this possible even in small towns, without staff having to be on site at all times.
Limited opening hours are everyday life in the countryside
- Where shops still exist, opening hours are often short.
- Working people and commuters barely get the chance to shop.
- Staff for long opening hours are expensive and hard to find.
- Spontaneous needs cannot be met locally.
Supplied around the clock — economically implemented
- Access and payment technology enables shopping outside service hours.
- During defined service hours, staff are additionally on site.
- Modern security and refrigeration technology keeps operation reliable.
- The range covers daily needs, not just snacks.
Advantages of a 24/7 village store
- Always available. Supply adapts to everyday life, not the other way around.
- Economical. Long opening hours without continuous staffing costs.
- Secure. Proven access, checkout and security technology.
- Regional. Baked goods and products from the surrounding area.

Who this is for
Municipalities and operators who want to supply their town independently of conventional shop opening hours — from the commuter to the older neighbourhood.
Example application
In a district without a shop, a 24/7 smart store is created: during the day with service, outside service hours via digital access. Commuters shop in the evening, families at the weekend — supply is no longer tied to fixed shop hours.
