Coop plans relaunch

Member press The Coop-Presse is considering a facelift at the beginning of 2004, and when all three language editions of the Coop-Zeitung are printed in full color from the New Year, the new possibilities will also be used for editing the weekly paper. Newspaper designer Clemens Barmettler is already working on a relaunch, confirms Karl Vögeli, Head of Coop Press. The facelifted paper will appear at the beginning of 2004 - still in tabloid format. Vögeli did not want to reveal any more. "After all, we don't want to be copied by the competition, because they are also currently working on a relaunch," he says, referring to the Migros bridge builder. (mk)
