    Staud's

    This traditional Viennese business is well-known and loved for its sweet and sour delicacies such as jams and pickles. If you are looking for a souvenir from Vienna, you will surely find the right one amongst the more than 200 varieties in the Staud's Shop on the Brunnenmarkt in Ottakring. Fresh fruit and vegetables as well as fresh bread from local bakeries can be bought here.

    Mano Design

    The Viennese factory mainly produces lights, accessories and vases out of porcelain. In doing so mano design is the only manufacturer in Austria to specialise in the processing of "Bone China" - one of the highest quality and finest kinds of porcelain. The designer knows how to play with conventions and thus creates products which are at the same time both creative and functional .

    Y5 Open Space

    The Viennese upcycling fashion brand MILCH.tm has its control centre at Yppenplatz. The pop-up store is used by various designers and there is always something new to discover here. The focus of fashion is on "fair fashion", i.e. on fair trade and sustainability. It definitely pays off to pass by! Unfortunately, the Y5 store is only open on Saturdays.
