Press and Media – nur Gutes in the Public Eye

nur Gutes in the Press, Trade Media, and Industry Publications

Since our founding in 2002, we have been delighted by continuously growing media attention. As one of the first gourmet food online shops in Germany, as organizers of the deli Festival, and through Kerstin’s work as managing director of the Association of Leading Delicatessen Merchants, we are well-connected in the German gourmet food industry – and are regularly consulted by trade and public media as discussion partners, experts, and practical examples.

On this page, we provide an overview of where and in what context nur Gutes has been reported on.

Falstaff – "Best of: Fine, Finer, Gourmet Food"

The renowned pleasure magazine Falstaff featured nur Gutes in its comprehensive industry portrait on the future of the gourmet food trade in Germany. In the article, Kerstin Uhlenbusch describes how the gourmet food trade has changed over the past two decades and which values are important to customers today. Instead of classic luxury products, the focus is increasingly on origin, authenticity, and artisanal quality – a development that we at nur Gutes have helped shape from the very beginning.

The Falstaff article impressively shows how owner-managed gourmet food stores are reinventing themselves in the field of tension between tradition and digitalization – and why establishments like nur Gutes, which embraced e-commerce early on, are particularly well-positioned today.

IDM South Tyrol – Expert Voice on Price Realities in the Delicatessen Market

The economic development agency IDM South Tyrol invited Kerstin Uhlenbusch as an industry expert to a specialist event to discuss the new price realities in the delicatessen market. With over 20 years of experience in the gourmet food trade, Kerstin was able to report firsthand on how purchasing behavior and customer expectations have changed.

Her central message: Customers interested in delicatessen are not necessarily looking for luxury. They are looking for quality, good ingredients, and responsible production. And they remain loyal to products that convince them – even if prices have risen. For producers, this means: those who focus on genuine quality and clearly differentiate themselves from supermarket assortments have the best chances in the market.

Pickware – Customer Story on Warehouse Processes and Efficiency

The merchandise management specialist Pickware has profiled nur Gutes in a detailed customer story. The focus is on how a gourmet food mail-order company with around 7,000 items – from wine bottles to chip bags, jam jars, and cookware – achieves efficient warehouse processes and a delivery accuracy of 99.9 percent.

The story shows how we have evolved from a brick-and-mortar gourmet food store in downtown Nordhorn to a nationwide shipping online shop with a modern operational building. With a fixed-location system that can be dynamically adapted, mobile barcode scanners, and digitized processes from goods receipt to shipping labels, we have achieved an efficiency increase of up to 70 percent in warehousing and shipping. The Pickware customer story offers an exciting look behind the scenes of our gourmet shipping operations.

Lizenzero – "A Good Eco-Balance Defines Our Products"

In an interview with Lizenzero, the packaging licensing service of the Dual System Interseroh, Kerstin spoke about our handling of the Packaging Act and our sustainability philosophy. The article highlights how a gourmet food online shop, sourcing food from across Europe and shipping it nationwide, addresses the challenges of packaging licensing.

It becomes clear that sustainability at nur Gutes is not a mere obligation but a lived conviction. From product selection to packaging materials and our energy concept with geothermal heat and photovoltaics – the interview provides an honest insight into our efforts to minimize our ecological footprint.

Leni & Hans – Interview about Manufaktur U

The food magazine Leni & Hans featured Kerstin in an extensive founder interview. The conversation covers the origins of our in-house soup manufactory, the challenges of a food startup, and how to combine traditional recipes with modern approaches – without compromising on quality and sustainability.

The interview reveals a side of nur Gutes that goes beyond pure trading: we are not just retailers, but also producers ourselves. In our manufactory, we combine knowledge from over two decades of gourmet food experience with a passion for making things ourselves.

Trade Press and Industry Media

Our work in the gourmet food trade and Kerstin's involvement in the Association of Leading Delicatessen Merchants have been regularly reported on in the most important trade media of the food industry. This includes the Lebensmittel Zeitung, fleischwirtschaft, and various regional daily newspapers.

The reporting covers topics such as the development of the German gourmet food market, changing consumer demands for quality and origin, the role of small manufactories in the food trade, and the digitalization of brick-and-mortar retail. As practitioners who operate both a local store and one of Germany's most experienced gourmet food online shops, we can report on these topics firsthand.

The deli Festival – Our B2B Trade Fair for Delicatessen

A special chapter in our media history is the deli Festival, a B2B trade fair for delicatessen that we launched. In the Wandelhalle in Bad Kissingen, selected artisan food producers and small manufactories from all over Europe gathered for several years to present their products to trade visitors – a culinary salon of the highest class.

The deli Festival was reviewed in numerous trade media and regional newspapers and helped to make small producers visible and foster exchange between manufacturers and retailers. Even though we no longer organize the festival today, the contacts and relationships established there remain an important part of our network.

Our Products in Lifestyle and Food Magazines

What we are particularly pleased about: Editorial teams of major lifestyle, food, and women's magazines repeatedly discover products from our range and present them to their readers – be it as a gift idea, a seasonal recommendation, or a culinary discovery. The editorial teams link directly to our shop, so that the featured products can be conveniently ordered from us.

Magazines that have already recommended products from nur Gutes include:

Der Feinschmecker – Germany's leading gourmet magazine and a special honor for us as a gourmet food retailer. When the editorial team of Der Feinschmecker recommends products from our range, it confirms our commitment to the highest quality.

Food and Travel – The magazine for everyone who combines pleasure and travel, has featured products from our shop as culinary discoveries. This is exactly what nur Gutes stands for: bringing the best specialties of Europe home.

ELLE and ELLE Decoration – The fact that our products also appear in the most renowned lifestyle and interior design magazines shows that good food and beautiful living belong together. At nur Gutes, you will find both.

Living at Home – The magazine for a beautiful home has presented our products as recommendations for moments of indulgence within one's own four walls.

Lea and Funkuhr – Our products have also appeared as tips and recommendations in high-reach women's magazines. This shows that hand-picked gourmet food is no longer a niche topic, but appeals to a broad audience.

These editorial recommendations are always unsolicited and unpaid. We do not place advertisements to receive product placements. If editorial teams feature our products, it's because they are convinced of their quality – and that's the greatest compliment for us.

Grafschaft Bentheim – Regionally Rooted

As a company from Nordhorn, we are also present in regional reporting. The Grafschaft Bentheim has included us as a sustainable company in its company directory and highlights, among other things, our photovoltaic systems, with whose green electricity we also operate a public e-charging station at our location – free of charge for customers who wish to charge their electric vehicle while shopping.

This regional rootedness is important to us. We are a Nordhorn company that ships gourmet food throughout Germany from here – but has never forgotten its home.
