Switzerland's First 24/7 Supermarket Planned in Herisau

Migros announces groundbreaking plans for Switzerland's first round-the-clock supermarket, featuring innovative self-service technology.

Migros Ostschweiz has submitted an application to open Switzerland's first 24/7 supermarket in Herisau.
The pilot operation is scheduled to begin in summer 2025, pending approval.
The store will utilize 'Teo' technology to switch to self-service mode after standard staff hours.
Safety measures include video monitoring and sensors capable of detecting medical emergencies.
Migros recently faced a legal setback in Zurich where Sunday sales were ruled illegal.
