Raiffeisen-Lagerhaus Gastein

Raiffeisen-Lagerhaus Gastein is a local Lagerhaus branch at Breitenberg 65 in Bad Hofgastein, Austria, serving the Gastein Valley in the state of Salzburg. It belongs to the Salzburger Lagerhaus network, which is itself part of the broader Austrian Raiffeisen cooperative system. The branch combines a retail store, an agricultural supply center, and a building materials outlet, serving farmers, tradespeople, and private households in the surrounding Alpine region. The Gastein location offers the broad range of goods and services typical of a Lagerhaus store, including building consultation and a building component display (trained specialists advise on construction, renovation, and refurbishment), a garden department with a large selection of plants, shrubs, and trees plus expert advice, a beverage market with bulk ordering and event service, loose animal feed, and a loading service that helps customers load heavy goods directly into their vehicles. A delivery service brings goods from the warehouse to building sites or customers' doorsteps. The branch is managed locally, with contacts including the Lagerhaus manager (Lagerhausleiter), the market manager (Marktleiter), and an agricultural field service representative. The store is open Monday to Friday and Saturday morning, with separate hours for small appliance repair, and a farmers' market on Fridays and Saturdays. The location is described as having barrier-free access, wide doors, and barrier-free indoor passageways, but no accessible sanitary facilities. As a Lagerhaus store, Raiffeisen-Lagerhaus Gastein positions itself as a one-stop supplier for rural and Alpine communities, bringing together agricultural inputs, building materials, gardening products, and beverages in one place. Its identity is closely tied to the Austrian Raiffeisen cooperative tradition, in which Lagerhaus stores serve as regional hubs for agricultural supplies and hardware. The Gastein branch is one of the many locations in the Salzburger Lagerhaus organization, and its website is hosted under the salzburger-lagerhaus.at domain.

Raiffeisen-Lagerhaus Gastein is a branch of the Salzburger Lagerhaus organisation, which operates within the Austrian Raiffeisen cooperative system. The Lagerhaus model in Austria traces its roots to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when agricultural cooperatives were established to supply farmers with seeds, feed, fertiliser, tools and building materials at fair prices. Over time, many local Lagerhaus cooperatives merged into regional organisations, and the Salzburger Lagerhaus network became the umbrella for Lagerhaus locations across the state of Salzburg. The Gastein branch is located in Bad Hofgastein, a market town in the Gastein Valley, a region known for its alpine agriculture, tourism and thermal spas. The branch serves the local farming community as well as residents and businesses in the valley. Its address at Breitenberg 65 places it within the town's commercial and agricultural supply infrastructure. As part of the Salzburger Lagerhaus network, the Gastein location benefits from central purchasing, logistics and branding while retaining a local management team. The branch manager, market manager and agricultural field service representative are based at the site, reflecting the Lagerhaus model of combining retail operations with direct agricultural advisory services. The store's offerings have evolved to include not only traditional farm supplies but also building consultation, garden centres, beverage markets and delivery services aimed at a broader customer base. The Gastein branch maintains a website page under the salzburger-lagerhaus.at domain, listing contact details, opening hours and services. It is one of several Lagerhaus locations in Salzburg, each serving its own catchment area. The branch's emphasis on accessibility, including step-free access and wide doors, reflects a broader trend among Austrian retailers to improve physical accessibility for all customers. While the exact founding date of the Gastein branch is not documented in the available sources, its presence in the Salzburger Lagerhaus network indicates a long-standing role in the regional supply chain. The branch continues to operate as an active retail and agricultural supply point, adapting its range to the needs of the Gastein Valley's residents, farmers and visitors.
