The complete concept
Dorla — the autonomous village store
Dorla brings local supply back to the village: an autonomous 24/7 store with a regional assortment that runs without checkout staff. The first Dorla has been operating in Gähwil (SG) since spring 2025 — «always near, always there».
- Around 2,500 products — fresh goods, staples and local specialities, sourced regionally where possible
- Open around the clock, 365 days a year
- Self-checkout with card and TWINT, secured alcohol area with age verification
- Run by Toggenburgshop AG — with experience from six further 24/7 stores
- A platform for local producers
Your municipality no longer has a village store?
Gähwil serves as a blueprint for further villages. Together we assess whether the concept can work at your location — from the first estimate to the operating model.
