The Heureka.cz shopping guide has given out awards to the best and most popular e‑shops on the Czech Internet for the thirteenth time. This year, a brand new category titled Sustainable e‑shop was added to the competition. The first ever winners are Biopekárna Zemanka, Econea and Nákup na Dobro. The absolute winner of the Quality Award was the Knihobot second-hand book e‑shop, while the Popularity Award went to the Lidl e‑shop. The jury awarded the Heureka Prize to the Econea e‑shop. An overview of all the winners in each category is available on the ShopoftheYear competition website.  

“Czech e‑shops are among Europe’s leaders in terms of service quality, because Czech customers are very demanding. The aim of the competition is to recognise and thank these e‑shops,” says Tomáš Braverman, CEO of the Heureka Group, adding: “At the same time, we want to identify the winners for our customers, so they can easily and conveniently choose from high-quality, reliable, inspiring and sustainable e‑shops.

The brand new Sustainable e‑shop category has produced its first winners

The 13th edition of the competition featured a new category titled Sustainable e‑shop. This award follows up on the eponymous Sustainable e‑shop project, which Heureka launched last November in cooperation with Komerční banka, Visa and the Association of Social Responsibility. The winners, chosen from among e‑shops with the Sustainable e‑shop certificate, were selected by a jury of Czech sustainability experts. “For us, sustainability means the comprehensive sum of all the activities of an e‑shop. In addition to a conscientious approach based on sustainable operations, it also includes ethical behaviour towards employees, customers, and suppliers and, of course, environmental friendliness,” stated Tomáš Braverman, CEO of Heureka Group, explaining the principles of the award. The first ever Sustainable e‑shops are Biopekárna Zemanka, which has been operating on the organic products market since 2006, the Econea e‑shop and the Nakup na Dobro shop.
