New Grocery in Germany?

Starting up in the morning (the 29th).....there will be a new discount grocery operation in Germany.  'Torgservis' is the name.

Opening in Leipzig....this is a first of a strange kind.....a Russian owned operation.

Their gimmick?  No fancy lights.....fruit and vegetables laid out on pallets. 

Yes, just a a plain, raw grocery.

Will it work in Germany?  There's almost a thousand of these in eastern Europe, Russia and Asia. Some people probably will suggest that the plain features and cheap prices will entice some Germans.  All this bio-food gimmicks that most German shops feature?  I would imagine that it won't occur at Torgservis.  Those on a fixed income and near poverty-class might find this an interesting shop.
