9 hours | Saint-Etienne: despite the confinement, the Vrac en vert grocery store celebrated (modestly) its 3 years
It’s a great adventure started three years ago: bulk and a maximum of local products. The Vrac en Vert grocery store in Saint-Etienne found its public and thought of celebrating this anniversary as it should. But with confinement, she had to review her operating mode (limited number of customers, obligation to ask an employee to serve you the bulk, ban on using her own containers …).
“It is not easy to work in these conditions but you are making our task more pleasant” wrote its managers on the Facebook page of the grocery store, each posing with a candle. History to celebrate, even modestly, this success.
