M&M’s Berlin Flagship to Close on October 31, 2026

Mars says a routine review of its business operations prompted the shutdown, leaving London as the only M&M’s store in Europe.

Overview

  • Mars announced that the M&M’s store on Berlin’s Kurfürstendamm will close on October 31, 2026, and employees have been informed of the decision.
  • Parts of the roughly 3,000 square metre flagship were already restricted before the announcement and the on-site café has been closed while the Chocolate Wall remains open for visitors.
  • The company described the move as the result of a regular review of business operations, not as a sign of insolvency or a local retail failure.
  • With Berlin’s closure, only the London M&M’s store will remain in Europe while Mars continues to operate branded stores in the United States and Asia.
  • The shutdown will alter the retail mix on Kurfürstendamm and affect store staff directly, and it signals a narrower, experience-focused footprint for M&M’s in Europe that could prompt further local changes.
