EuroShop RetailDesign Award

Since 2008, the EuroShop RetailDesign Award has been conferred annually on the three best store concepts worldwide. In 2022 the award got a new look: Starting immediately, applicants have the chance to be honoured in one of the following five categories: Food, Fashion & Lifestyle, Digital, Hospitality and Sustainability. There is one winner per category. The perfect mix of shop architecture, colours, materials, lighting and visual merchandising, enabling the range’s message and the target group to be clearly identified, continues to be crucial to the jury’s decision.

The next presentation of the EuroShop RetailDesign Award will be at EuroShop 2026 – with deadline for submissions for the EuroShop RetailDesign Award 2026 in July 2025.

This year’s five winners emerged from a field of 103 competitors from 31 countries and will receive their awards on the first day of the world’s largest trade show, EuroShop, in Dusseldorf.

The winners excelled with forward-looking sustainability ideas, exciting design productions and technologically and conceptually innovative retail projects. These are the winners 2023:
