The first million: the Galaxus product range continues to grow

The Galaxus shopping experience is becoming increasingly well rounded. For the first time, the online department store with roots in Switzerland now has more than one million products available in Austria.

Galaxus doesn’t only offer electronics, toys or DIY, but also furniture, lamps and decorative accessories. We’ve significantly developed our interiors section, with around 160,000 home decor products now available for purchase on galaxus.at. Although our 1-million-strong product range is already pretty large, our Switzerland-based parent company Digitec Galaxus has more than four million products on its platform. With this in mind, Galaxus in Austria and Germany is always on the lookout for new manufacturers, suppliers and brands.

New logistics centre in Krefeld to ensure even better service

After almost four years of Galaxus in Germany and almost one in Austria, we’re facing our next big growth spurt. A second warehouse is being built for Galaxus at our logistics site in Krefeld. This’ll give the online department store much more room to grow: more space for new, and larger products, more room for staff, even faster delivery times for many products, and a wider selection for customers in Austria. The almost 14,000-square metre warehouse, located in the district of Hüls, is due to be occupied in August.

Keeping pace with growth: new staff wanted in Hamburg and Krefeld

In 2021, Galaxus Deutschland GmbH achieved sales of over 100 million euros in Germany and Austria for the first time. Such robust growth within just three years requires a large workforce, which is why Galaxus is looking for new category management, supply chain management, logistics and marketing team members in Hamburg and Krefeld. You’ll find our current vacancies here.
