01. Quality

The quality of Geneva’s farm products because of their freshness, diversity, and taste, growing methods that respect the environment – and no genetically modified plants or animals.

02. Proximity

Proximity, which fosters a climate of confidence between producers and consumers – and proximity means that all products originate in Geneva and the Free Zone, and require only local transportation.
