Objectives: Consumers are changing the way they purchase and consume, moving towards more local products which originate close to the point of purchase and thus feature a clearly identified local origin on the packaging. This is the local food movement. Agricultural cooperatives naturally have a significant role to play in this, due to their ability to produce, harvest and deliver food products across a local area. The only thing that was still missing, commercial innovation, was provided with the creation of the Frais d’Ici brand and its first shop just south of Toulouse.
