Corner shops in Berlin test during pandemic not selling alcohol

Description

Berlin, Apr 17 (EFE) .- (Camera: María Garrido Sellabona) The restrictions due to the pandemic force imaginative business solutions, such as the one that in the multi-ethnic district of Kreuzberg in Berlin revises the concept of the traditional corner shop, or "Späti", to try to stop prejudices about alcohol: about those who do not drink it. FOOTAGE OF A SPÄTI.SOUNDBITES AND TRANSLATIONS:1. Isabella Steiner (co-founder of Späti)"Berlin is like a capital city and there are many clubs, bars and lots of drinks, open from Monday to Sunday. My business partner and I like to drink but then the question arose, what to drink if we don't want to drink."2. Katja Kauft (co-founder of Späti)"Many clients came during the first confinement because they drank alone in private. Therefore, those who come here have to find an alternative and enjoy their favourite drinks such as their favourite wine without consequences."
