Toulouse: Laetitia delivers her family bike baskets
Laetitia Koenig has created a 100% local food products site. These baskets delivered to a bicycle have been enriched for some time by a culinary recipe.
It is because she became the mother of two little boys that Laetitia Koening, a fine cook, decided to create her site of local products: “I was a mechanical engineer at Airbus,” explains this young mother. Always on the lookout for original, healthy products in court circuits, to be able to surprise those around me, I quickly realized that it is very complicated to find this range in the same place. So I decided by becoming a mother, to change course and create my site laetiPaniers.fr. “.
A site made up of 100% local products, gathered around dairy products (cheese, organic eggs), organic bread, meat, trout, groceries, drinks, fruits and vegetables and also cannery, organic oil, meat from Occitanie and even cosmetics. So many products whose origin does not exceed 100 km around Toulouse and whose producers are on a human scale in organic or sustainable agriculture.
Since this young mother delivers at home or at the workplace, several times a week with the family bike, three baskets of seasonal fruits and vegetables and à la carte products. Unique link between local producers and consumers, Laetitia thus ensures the freshness and traceability of its products.
“People are reassured to eat local”
Faced with the success of her two-wheel initiative, Laetitia enriched her offer a month ago with a new service: “In each of the baskets, I add a recipe card, including vegan, to make a menu of four. people. A recipe that is obviously simple to make, accessible to all ”.
Customers really happy to have this service. “People are happy to discover a diverse short-circuit diet. In this complicated period on the health side, I think that this type of food reassures them ”.
She adds: “Many more questions about the reasons for consuming local. What is the impact on the environment? Do fruits and vegetables find their true flavor? By buying local, are we supporting producers in the Occitanie region? So many questions to which I try to answer as precisely as possible ”.
the LaetiPaniers site includes three baskets of seasonal fruits and vegetables, two recipe baskets for four people (one vegetarian recipe and one meat) and à la carte products.
