Shop without packaging wastes: I pack' that

Each table a Grabbeltisch: A supermarket in Berlin offers not packed goods. In former times that was normally, now conquers the founders the hearts of the customers. But the way to the mass movement is still far.


Berlin - the red-headed lady works a few seconds helpless, where she is to accommodate the ordered rolls best. Then she delays her carrying bag to the salesperson. The man behind that bar weighs still a few apples, all food out hikes into the bag. The employee takes the money and says good-bye with a smile of the customer.

Which works like an everyday life scene in the grocer's shop, everything else are as usual in the descriptive case. Because it takes place in a supermarket, which is valid since past Saturday as attraction in the eco-moved citizen of Berlin scene quarter Kreuzberg. Its name, “original not packed”, points already to the nuclear idea, which her foundresses Sara Wolf and Milena Glimbovski used up themselves: They want to sell bio food and get along without packagings. Completely equal whether nuts, pepper grains or gummi bear, noodles, olive oil or coffee powder - for the protection on the way home the customers themselves must provide. Spontaneous buyers find suitable plastic or metal boxes on the shelf. Also bottles for the transport of liquids are in the offer.
