A permanent network of covered markets , offering 100% organic products at affordable prices, all directly from wonderful producers? It's at The Barn Bio Market, of course! 🌱

Imagine a place where the values of respect for the environment, health and sustainability are not mere slogans, but the true reason for the existence of every product in the store... At The Barn Bio Market, it's much more than just an organic grocery store, it's a real vibrant and engaged community, a place where every purchase is an act of support for a greener and more ethical vision of food! 🍎🥦🥕

Their mission? To work for sustainable production from both an economic and ecological point of view. How? By allowing as many people as possible to eat healthy and sustainably thanks to a range of everyday products offered in a simple and raw way. 🍅✨ It's as simple as that! 

And if eating well is essential, knowing the origin of the products is even more so. For the cooperative, consuming sustainably is not only about doing something for your health and the planet, it is also about supporting farmers and artisan.es passionné.es, in complete transparency and authenticity. Yes, at The Barn Bio Market, there is nothing to hide... But rather everything to tell! You can believe us, in terms of their 400 quality products, they know a lot about them! 😉 Selected with love (and high standards), all the sustainable projects present in the store are highlighted by The Barn team to help them grow in their activities while guaranteeing them a stable and fair income. A virtuous circle as we like them! 🥰

At The Barn Bio Market, the food revolution has begun and does not intend to stop there... Ready to write the rest of the story with them? 🍃

The Barn - image d'équipe - Meet My Job

At The Barn Bio Market, the team is much more than just a group of colleagues: it's a real family of more than 160 Barners passioné.es! Each team member shares a common passion for sustainable food and strives to understand and tell the compelling stories of the artisan.es behind every product in the store. 🌿

And to do this, the cooperative is committed every day to deepening its collaborations with Barners and producers. This translates into inspiring encounters, field visits, and even hands-on experiences where Barners get their hands dirty by working in their market gardeners' crops during the summer! 🚜🌞 This immersion allows everyone to better understand the realities of sustainable agriculture and to know the products inside out... All in joy, earth and good humor! 🤭

But that's not all: The Barn Bio Market strongly believes that the fulfillment of each individual within the project is crucial to meeting the challenges of change. As a result, the two founders rely on passionate and responsible employees, recruited on the basis of their sparkling personalities and values! 🌟 In addition, each Barner benefits from personalized monthly support and enjoys total autonomy on decisions concerning stocks, product range and store layout ... A freedom that, as we know, will seduce more than one! Monthly collective meetings are also scheduled to solicit collective intelligence and each victory, small or big, is celebrated together ! 🎉 In fact, every summer a Barn Festival is organized at one of their market gardeners: a moment that is described to us as magical, where music, games, dance, shows and other fun reign to party together! 🎈

So, we made you want to join The Barn Bio Market, where team spirit, solidarity and generosity are not just nutty words? 🌰 Where you will have the banana every day 🍌, within a team that cares about sustainable food like the apple of its eye? Mission accomplished! 🤩

Our commitments to sustainable world

Image présentant l'impact n°0

The Barn seeks to reduce its carbon footprint as much as possible by reducing waste and working with responsible production systems. 🌎 In what ways? By prioritizing seasonal products and offering as  many products as possible in bulk, using recycled furniture in stores, recovering unsold products and calculating, reducing and offsetting their carbon footprint each year in sustainable projects. 🌱

Image présentant l'impact n°1

Each store is in partnership with a local market gardener with the aim of creating a positive synergy. The market gardener provides organic, local and seasonal products, and provides a lot of information on agriculture, soils, and market gardening practices. 👩 🌾 In return, The Barn allows this market gardener to develop his offer and his project by ensuring a minimum amount of orders, by pre-financing the equipment. The icing on the cake? 🍒 For each store opening, The Barn starts a partnership with a new market gardening project (which even benefits from an investment bonus at the beginning of the collaboration!).

"One need = one product". Simple, effective, durable. Do we need to say more? 😎

The Barn aims to make sustainable food accessible to everyone by offering the cheapest products on the organic market, but never to the detriment of the producer. 💰 And to combine business with pleasure, the cooperative chooses shop locations in different districts, easily accessible by public transport ! 🚎
