In 2011 the company started a delivery service with a test run in Frankfurt am Main, which was gradually expanded to locations throughout Germany. Rewe was with this approach a pioneer in online trading with food in Germany. As of 2015 they have publicised plans for investing more heavily in their online presence.[2]

Their own store brand products are branded "ja!" (Discounter-price), "REWE Beste Wahl" ("Normal" price), "REWE Feine Welt" (High price, special items), "REWE Bio" (Organic), "REWE Regional" and "REWE to go".[3]

The Bundesliga club 1. FC Köln is sponsored by Rewe on their jerseys until the end of the 2020–21 season.[4]
