Overview
BioFrais runs organic food markets in France, where shoppers buy fresh foods and everyday groceries alongside household and personal-care products. Its stores use a market format, bringing produce displays, chilled foods and packaged groceries together for a full shopping trip. The assortment extends from baby food and bulk staples to wine and cosmetics, with produce sellers, wine specialists and naturopaths available to advise customers. It earns revenue from products sold through its stores, combining specialist food counters with self-service shopping under one retail brand. BioFrais opened its first market in 2008 and is headquartered in Epagny, France.
