Entrepreneur saves Gadebuscher Markt: 50% discount from July 21!

in Gadebusch, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, there is reason to be happy: A local popular special item market remains after the impending closure could be averted. The entrepreneur Flemming Jacobsen found a successor to Lars Rippchen who wants to bring a breath of fresh air to the business. Rippchen, 45 years old and located near Stralsund, took over the business and two employees on July 1, 2025. One of the plans of the new owner is the expansion of the range, which should be particularly interested in bargain hunters.

"I plan to convert the flea hall into an auction house," revealed Rippchen. From July 21, 2025, prices in the flea hall are to be reduced by 50 percent - a real incentive for all bargain hunters! The XXL special item market also advertises with price cuts of up to 30 percent. Regular actions and new goods are also intended to increase the number of visitors to the market. Rippchen seems to have a good hand for interesting business models, because originally his interest was only aimed at the containers on the company premises.

The rise of the special item market

Special items markets are enjoying increasing popularity in Germany. They offer branded goods at particularly low prices and are mostly operated by sole proprietors who rely on changing ranges. Typical articles that you can find here are inexpensive household items, tools or fashionable accessories. The offer is primarily aimed at price -sensitive and impulse buyers who are usually on bargains. So also reports Wikipedia that many markets are located in less frequented locations.

"Pandemy has meant that many operators of special items have expanded their range to offer food and pet food," explains an industry expert. This can be seen, not least by large chains such as Thomas Philipps, who now operate over 200 markets and offer a range of more than 8,000 articles. Repo, a well -known brand in the remaining area area, has also made a name for itself since it was founded in 1985.

an entrepreneur with experience

Lars Rippchen brings a lot of experience into the business. He has made a name for himself through the industrial recycling and actively participates in the dissolution of company inventory, for example after the Schlecker bankruptcy when he used shop facilities of 320 branches. Rippchen also works internationally and sells inventory of a wine manufacturer in Spain, which underlines its Italian structuring of its business.

"I am happy to continue the market and to fully exploit the possibilities that exist here," said the new owner. The transformation of the business could not only be an advantage for the region; Bargain hunters can also look forward to interesting offers that will soon find their way into Gadebusch. The future of the market is obviously on a solid foundation.
