“Just in time for the start of winter and the breakdown of our central heating, we boughta Danish wood-burning stove for our home. Itproduces plenty of heat, is a practical exampleof sustainability and ensures that the house islovely and warm.” Dr Stephanie Dutzke-Wittneben, Sustai-nability Team, ECE Projektmanagement “My new Stevens trekking bike is perfect for cycling around town with its fantastic features. Every day in the summer, its lightweight alu- minium frame and high-quality Shimano gears transport me safely between home and work.” Kirsten Kaiser, Head of Accounting,Deutsche EuroShop “In 2011 I needed to overhaul my wardrobe. It’s good when clothes last, but there comes a time when you’ve just had enough of them. I enjoyed shopping for new ones!” Claus-Matthias Böge, Executive Board Spokesman, Deutsche EuroShop “We made more use of our terrace by getting a Weber gas grill. It’s incredible what it can do. We are using it morning, noon and night, when the weather’s good. The best thing about it is how easy it is to clean and the space where you can put your glass of beer or wine.” Olaf Borkers, Member of the Executive Board, Deutsche EuroShop “In 2011 I indulged my body and spirit. One thing I bought was a new bike (and also a helmet, to set a good example to my kids), and the other thing was that I discovered a new asset class: art. I started with 3D constructions by the US pop artist James Rizzi, who sadly passed away at the end of 2011.” Patrick Kiss, Head of Investor & Public Relations, Deutsche EuroShop Executive Board, Deutsche EuroShop Executive Board, Deutsche EuroShop “In 2011 I needed to overhaul my wardrobe.

Nevertheless, I remain impressed with the new induction hob I have in the new kitchen I bought last year. It makes cooking much faster, saving me not only energy and money, but time too – which leaves me more time to shop!” Maria Hill, Head of Sustainability, ECE Project management “My friends recently gave me a bag with the IN 2011IN 2011IN 2011 What I bought 24 DES Annual Report 2011 SHOPPING what i bought
