    Together for a better life<\/h2>\n
    \n

    In 1927, 17 purchasing cooperatives joined forces and founded the \u2018Revisionsverband der Westkaufgenossenschaften\u2019 (Western Buying Co-operatives Auditing Association) \u2013 or REWE for short \u2013 with the goal of collectively organising the purchase of food. Today, the cooperative has an international presence and enjoys success in both the retail and tourism sectors. As a cooperative with a history dating back more than 90 years, we understand our ecological and social responsibility towards future generations. We are committed to safeguarding a sustainable future.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n

                    Today, every retail business offers international product ranges as standard. Consumer purchases are becoming increasingly spontaneous and situational. Over the years, REWE GROUP has established a dense, vibrant procurement network with REWE Far East and its offices in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Bangkok, Istanbul and Ho Chi Minh City <\/span><\/span>playing a central role. More than 155 experts are also responsible for procuring a high-quality assortment of non-food, food, and ultra-fresh products, as well as investment goods and consumables.<\/p>\n

                    In 2016, REWE GROUP was one of the founding members of EURELEC, a joint venture set up to strengthen the company\u2019s procurement position within the highly competitive European food market.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n
