Toulouse: baskets of local products without packaging offered at reduced prices to students
Since last October, Toulouse students have had the opportunity to purchase a basket of fresh, seasonal and local products from the Drive Tout nu at a reduced price, an initiative supported by the Region.
Local and seasonal fruits and vegetables, ecological household products, cheese from the region… Since last October, the company “Le Drive tout Nu” specializing in the online sale of local products and zero waste to come directly withdrawn from one of their three warehouses in the Toulouse metropolitan area is aimed at students. “We had this idea in mind for a long time. In 2021, as part of a citizen vote organized by the Occitanie region for sustainable food, we received the support of many citizens. The Region released 15,000 euros to support this project,” notes Léa Robine, head of the “student basket” project.
With the health crisis and the general increase in prices, the Drive all naked offers a basket at 10 euros instead of 20 euros consisting of dry products, dairy products, drinks, biscuits, fruits and vegetables, etc. Each week, therefore, 50 baskets are available for order on the company’s website. The list of products changes every week. The students questioned can then withdraw their basket, the composition of which they know in advance, the following week at the counter of Drive tout nu de Montaudran. The products sold are all packaged in reusable packaging. Therefore, consumers are invited to return the containers so that they can be reused for other orders.
