At the Heart of Cities, at the Heart of Change

Sustainable Railway Stations

For all of us at Grandi Stazioni Retail, environmental sustainability is a daily choice that guides every action. It is not only a responsibility but also a concrete commitment to a more sustainable future.

With the growing number of visitors, stations are transforming into dynamic, sustainable spaces where travel meets new experiences and waiting becomes a valuable opportunity. GSR is at the forefront of this change, a key player in sustainable mobility and collective transport, at the very heart of cities.

The transformation of stations acts as a catalyst for innovation and quality of life: through targeted interventions, we’re making these spaces more welcoming, functional, and integrated into the urban fabric, improving the entire travel experience.
We’re dedicated to redeveloping abandoned areas, enhancing unused locations, and promoting the rehabilitation of neglected spaces.

Each day, we strive to play the role of promoter of urban regeneration and the redevelopment of abandoned and disused places, giving them new purpose and vitality.

BREEAM

In 2024, we launched several initiatives to protect water resources, preventing contamination from food-service activities and reducing waste in restrooms.
