Fair trade stores Nord-Pas-de-Calais

Founded in 1974, the Robin des Bio association promotes organic farming in Lille and the entire Hauts-de-France region. Its philosophy can be summed up in three words: organic, local and fair trade. Through its grocery store, the association aims to set up a distribution circuit on a human scale, respectful of people and the environment. The grocery store enables the association to sell and buy organic and eco-responsible products for its members, covering all the needs of daily life. From fresh produce and cleaning products to bulk dry groceries, over 1,500 items are on offer. And all products are sourced from local producers and suppliers. Robin des Bio is more than just a grocery store; it's the showcase of an association that wants to change mindsets and consumption patterns to preserve people and their environment.

According to its name, Etika Spirulina is an urban farm producing ethically-sourced fresh spirulina, a cyanobacteria that provides protein and iron in abundance. This little marvel is the passion of Xavier, Flore and Michaël, three enthusiasts who take great pleasure in helping you discover all the secrets of spirulina through visits to their farm, or their organic products, which are excellent for your health and the planet! Their spirulina honey is very tasty, their iced spirulina is delicious in smoothies and their spreads are a real treat!
