Retail trade

We offer two courses in this professional field:

• Management assistant for retail services (three year full qualification)
• Sales assistant for retail services (two year full qualification).

The trainees learn to organise the complete process from purchasing, book-keeping, storage and product presentation to sales, balancing the cash register and processing orders for a total of three branches.

In our shop "Pfiffikus", in Bitburg town center, we serve tea and some snacks. We also have articles on offer made by our affiliate partners, the partnership project in Rwanda, as well as selected products from the Red Cross Shop or through independent production by trainees in our commercial manufacture.

The inhouse kiosk has a wide range of fresh baking, snacks as well as hot and cold drinks for staff, participants, and visitors alike.

The Euro-BBW greenhouse regularly sells seedlings and decoration articles, extending trainees first hand experience to include the "garden product" sector.

Work experience placements can be arranged in supermarkets, building suppliers, garden centers or bakeries.
