Responsible purchasing

We prefer to source our raw materials as close to home as possible. In France, Europe or around the Mediterranean basin, to limit transport and thus the use of fossil fuels.

Eco-friendly packaging

We offer responsible options to eliminate plastic packaging: our bulk products and our snack range are now packaged in certified home compost.

Waste reduction

We actively recycle paper, cardboard, glass and even cooking oil. Our bio-waste is collected by BIOVARE, a nearby vermiculture farm, which treats waste from local businesses to produce compost that enriches the soil of local farmers and amateur gardeners alike.
