Intermarché bans Moroccan strawberries

In order to promote seasonal and local French products, the Les Mousquetaires group, which oversees the Intermarché and Netto brands, has made a radical decision: to ban strawberries and cherries from its stalls during the months of December and January, and therefore those coming from Morocco.

This initiative is part of a broader desire to favor short circuits. The objective stated by the group is ambitious: by 2027, double the number of its local suppliers, thus increasing to 20,000 farmers located less than 70 km from points of sale.
