Topping-out ceremony for the “coop Stammhaus Quartier” in Kiel
On September 16, 2025, Coop eG celebrated the topping-out ceremony for the Coop headquarters quarter in Kiel Gaarden with approximately 300 guests.
This is an important milestone in the development of the quarter with approximately 33,000 m² of gross floor area.
The structural work is being carried out on behalf of Coop eG by a joint venture (ARGE) in cooperation with Richard Ditting GmbH & Co. KG and OTTO WULFF Bauunternehmung GmbH.
In typical North German rainy weather, but with an all the more cheerful mood, the ARGE announced the topping-out ceremony. The Board of Coop eG thanked everyone involved and emphasized the importance of being able to return to the new premises at the traditional location on Soerensenstraße in Kiel as a cooperative.
By the end of 2026, five building complexes for residential, office, and commercial space, including a daycare center, a grocery store with access to underground parking spaces, as well as medical practices and assisted living areas, will be built on the site. DGNB Gold certification is being sought. Furthermore, sustainability and resource-efficient implementation will be emphasized with the implementation of extensively landscaped courtyards, a sustainable energy supply, and the installation of photovoltaic systems.
VITZTHUM Projektmanagement GmbH is fully responsible for project management.
