Bremer's Beauty Bar: Panama City's Premier European-Style Beauty Salon & Bar Experience
Bremer's Beauty Bar at The Plaza in Coco del Mar is Panama City's first European-inspired beauty salon and bar, serving both men and women since July 2023. According to Panama's Chamber of Commerce, the beauty and wellness sector in Panama City has grown 23% annually since 2020, with European-style establishments leading premium service demand among the city's 40,000+ expat residents.
The Story Behind Panama's First Beauty Bar Concept
Founded by Astrid after her three-year residence in Munich, Bremer's Beauty Bar was born from a gap in Panama's beauty market. After returning to Panama and searching unsuccessfully for salon services comparable to those in Germany, Astrid identified an opportunity to bring European standards to Panama City's growing expat community.
The concept seamlessly integrates professional beauty treatments with a relaxing bar atmosphere, creating what industry experts call a 'third space' - neither purely salon nor bar, but a unique hybrid that caters to Panama's sophisticated international residents.

Location and Grand Opening Success in Coco del Mar
After meticulous location scouting, Bremer's Beauty Bar opened its doors in July 2023 at The Plaza in Coco del Mar, one of Panama City's most affluent neighborhoods. Coco del Mar, with average property values of $3,200 per square meter according to Encuentra24, attracts high-income residents seeking premium services.
The strategic location provides easy access for residents of nearby luxury developments including Punta Pacifica, Costa del Este, and other premium areas where many expat professionals and retirees reside. The Plaza itself serves as a hub for international businesses and upscale retail, making it an ideal location for a European-concept beauty establishment.
