To be convinced of the acceleration of new consumption patterns and the adaptation of convenience stores, it is sometimes enough to walk a few streets. In light of what has been happening since the first deconfinement in a portion of the 15th, the most populous arrondissement in Paris.
In a fairly small rectangle, between Vaugirard, Lecourbe, Cambronne and Pasteur streets, a district still very marked by food shops, unlike other areas where fashion and cosmetics brands flourish, the openings reflect well. new challenges. While the field is already well occupied by organic brands, from Biocoop to Bio C’Bon, or by the bulk specialist Day by Day.
Opt for all in one
Instead of a Foncia agency whose name can still be read on the storefront, and almost in front of a Naturalia, the next arrival of the Volontaires du vrac grocery store, which will offer products, is announced in lime on the window. local, organic and, logically, zero waste, with the slogan, “organic is good, bulk is better”. The principle of all in one.
The notion of short circuits is clearly gaining momentum. It is found further on in two recent stores that quickly attracted customers. Primeur & Ethique specifies by large signs in front of its shop that it is organic, gives priority to the local and also offers seasonal baskets. Au Bout du Champ highlights its fruits and vegetables that have grown less than 100 kilometers away.
In a small adjacent street, it is an ephemeral store that has just opened. Open on March 3, the Comptoir de Gally will market until April 30 plants and products for direct sale from the Ferme de Gally, which notably has land less than 20 kilometers from the 15th.
Bread does not escape the importance of supply. In a newly renovated housing complex, the Boulangerie des enracinés claims “Preventive and sustainable nutrition” and the refusal of “Chemical industry” at every stage of production. In his bakehouse, where large breads are made that can be kept for several days, only natural flour and sourdough enter. At the time of payment, credit cards are not accepted.
