The store with the old bread

For one and a half years, “Äss-Bar” in Zurich’s Niederdorf district has been selling day-old baked goods half price. These are goods from regional bakeries that were not sold the day before. Business is booming. Now “Äss-Bar” is opening its second branch in Bern. Numerous bakers in Bern are getting involved with the project. (SRF/swissinfo.ch)
