New Budni drugstore opens at Stuttgart Airport-10,000 articles!

At Stuttgart Airport there is a new highlight for travelers and visitors: The Budni drugstore chain opened its first branch at the airport in early July 2025. With a spacious sales area of 180 square meters and an assortment of around 10,000 articles, the new Budni branch in Terminal 3, arrival level, is well equipped to meet the needs of travelers. From toothpaste to cosmetics in travel sizes to snacks and drinks - everyone can find the most necessary for the trip here. Esslinger Zeitung reports that the opening times from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

The target group is not only limited to passengers-the Budni branch is also aimed at around 10,000 employees on the airport site. Through the cooperation with Edeka, which has existed since 2017, the opening of the Budni branch is marketed as a "Budni-Powered by Edeka Jäger". This partnership extends the offer of the opposite Edeka Jäger-Markts, which previously only provided a small selection of drugstore items. nz emphasizes that the EDEKA-FILIALE Airport was opened in 2016 and a total of six locations in the Stuttgart area.

The opening of Budni at Stuttgart Airport takes place against the background of a watchful competition in the drugstore. The chain DM recently expanded its market share to 26.8 percent and plans extensive investments in new branches and a revised shop picture. With a turnover of 12.4 billion euros and an increase in sales of 9.5 percent in the 2023/24 financial year, the drugstore giant shows that it likes to break new ground and is increasingly taking into account the needs of its customers. So DM not only brings classic products on the shelf, but also relies on organic food and a strong online presence with more than 1,500 pick-up stations.
