The newest member of Central Group’s luxury portfolio
In 1892, Josef Weber – inspired by the Parisian tradition – founded the first large department store in Zürich and called it “Bazar ohne Gleichen” (bazaar beyond compare). Shortly thereafter, the banker Heinrich Burkhardt became Josef Weber’s business partner. Subsequently, he purchased the department store and transformed into a limited company – “Magazine zum GLOBUS” in 1907, thereby giving it today’s name.
In 2020, a joint venture of Central Group and SIGNA acquired GLOBUS department store chain, along with eight associated real estate properties at top inner-city locations across Switzerland.
GLOBUS has become an institution in Switzerland. For 125 years, it has captivated its visitors with an exquisite and exclusive range of products for a luxurious lifestyle and with an unparalleled service.
