• USAG STUTTGART, Germany

Progress is visible on the new Panzer Commissary construction site here on Panzer Kaserne.  

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Europe District is working closely with USAG Stuttgart, the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) and host nation partners to deliver this project for the garrison community.  

THE NEW COMMISSARY 

According to a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Europe District news story from June 2025, the new commissary will boast more than 37,000 square feet of sales area with the total building comprising almost 74,000 square feet.   

In addition to the new store, there will be ample parking for patrons with a new elevated parking garage, conveniently located right in front of the store.

The new commissary, which is scheduled to open in the spring of 2028, will replace the four older existing stores located at Patch Barracks, Panzer Kaserne, Kelley Barracks and Robinson Barracks. This new store will serve over 27,000 service members and their families.

The commissary portion of the project will deliver a full, new store complete with a large sales area, “Grab & Go” area and electronic checkout registers along with all the new necessary logistics and backroom facilities including a receiving area, loading dock, meat and produce preparation areas, cold and freeze storage and other supporting areas.

The project includes construction of both the new commissary and an elevated parking structure that will add more than 300 parking spaces to the lot between the new commissary and the existing Panzer Hotel Army Lodge.  

This is sited right by the existing Panzer Mall, where the Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) exchange is located, creating a convenient commercial hub for the USAG Stuttgart community.
