French agriculture has been experiencing a severe crisis for several years. The number of farmers is declining, which is due to a poor standard of living.
Potager City, a small Lyon-based company, practices short supply chain agriculture. For 10 years, the company has relied on its service of delivering fruit and vegetable baskets directly from the nearest producers. Customers simply need to order their basket each week on the website www.potagercity.fr. All without commitment and delivered for free at collection points.
Today, the company has four branches: in Île-de-France, Rhône-Alpes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, and Aquitaine Midi-Pyrénées.
About 500 producers have been selected based on a quality charter, focusing on sustainability, traceability, and the varieties of fruits and vegetables.
