The supermarket chain Aldi is closing several stores in German-speaking Switzerland.
Branches at Baden train station and near Bern’s Zytglogge will shut at the end of January.
The Glatt shopping center store in Wallisellen follows in early February, with Wabern closing later this spring.
Aldi isn’t giving detailed reasons, saying only the decisions follow an internal review.
The retailer points to factors like customer numbers, demand, lease conditions and long-term site strategy.
