IGDS

Founded in 1946 in Switzerland by eight European department stores willing to develop common synergies. A non-profit organization from the beginning; the cooperation between members is based on voluntary partnership, mutual interests, and trust.

Department Stores offer a uniquely human and sensory expertise based on great brands, animation, and services. Our mission is to meet and exceed a customer's desire for quality, surprise, discovery, and pleasure.

As an association, we are convinced that our commitment to provide a unique and entertaining shopping experience is more relevant now than ever.
