In Oltre il Colle the grocery shops are small and almost all in the main village, along via Roma and the nearby streets: the A&M Market, Da Parabèl, the Alimentari Tiraboschi in via Perletti, Il Mercatino della Frutta for fruit and vegetables and Il Bere in via Foppa. In the hamlets there is one per village: in Zambla Alta the Alimentari Tiraboschi in via Fezzoli, in Zambla Bassa Da Sofia, in Zorzone the grocery with a tobacco counter where the Baci di Zorzone biscuits are made, which this guide lists under tobacconists.

The sources do not always say the same thing. The council's list of shops is the widest but is not up to date, so much so that it still records the Monymarket sign where the A&M Market is today; the Pro Loco's 2026 page has more recent names and phone numbers; only a few shops publish their opening hours. On every page we say where each piece of information comes from, and when something is missing we say so.

For meat there is the Macelleria Raieri at via Roma 33, which also sells groceries and on Tuesdays takes orders for fresh fish; the only bakery on the council's list is in Zambla Alta, in via Fezzoli, next to the hamlet's grocery.

Who is open on Sundays and who delivers

Among the grocery shops that publish their hours, the A&M Market on via Roma opens on Sunday morning, from 8 to 12.30. The Zorzone grocery is closed on Sundays, and for the Mercatino della Frutta OpenStreetMap shows no Sunday opening; the other shops publish no hours, so it is best to phone before setting out.

In 2026 Da Parabèl and the Macelleria Raieri offer home delivery, in their advertisements in the Pro Loco's summer booklet. In March 2020, during the first lockdown, the CompraVicino list of Ascom Confcommercio Bergamo counted six shops in Oltre il Colle, groceries, a butcher's and a greengrocer, that delivered groceries free of charge to anyone who ordered by phone.

The Friday market and the summer markets

In the Pro Loco's 2026 summer programme the market was held every Friday from 3 July to 28 August, from 9 to 13 in piazza Mons. Belotti, in front of the town hall. In piazza Carrara, from 10 to 18, there were market stalls, including three Sundays with Coldiretti, the farmers' association, on 12 July and on 2 and 16 August, and four Saturdays with the Cascinale Lombardo, on 4 and 25 July and on 8 and 22 August. For the other months the sources give no dates.

The Alpe Arera parking ticket is sold in the shops

If you drive up to the car park at 1,600 metres on the Alpe Arera, above Plassa, you need a ticket before the climb: 4 euros a day for any vehicle, to be left on display. The council says it is sold in the affiliated shops or at the Plassa parking meters, in front of the apartment blocks, but does not publish the list of shops: ask when you do your shopping. The council also sells a 30-euro season pass, valid until the road closes.
