Dear Migros team!
I'm getting more and more perplexed by the green bill every month... Is it just about buying the labels you suggest? Last month I paid meticulous attention to this and only bought fruit and vegetables from Switzerland. It wasn't that easy (Migros' sustainability says hello...), but we did it. The children also did an exemplary job. I don't use packaged courgettes, but the open ones, which are not organic... But for me it's more organic if I produce less waste! At the end of the month, my green bill was below the Swiss average. For me, this calculation doesn't add up.
Another time we bought a new TV and achieved over 60%! As if buying a new TV is ecological....
Yours sincerely

If you consistently shop according to your own definition of what "organic" means, you shouldn't complain if Cumulus-Green doesn't follow suit. After all, organic and sustainability are classified and calculated according to the Migros definitions (Migros-Bio, Terra Suisse, Alnatarua, Max Havelaar, UT, etc.).
Hello rahi777
With the introduction of Cumulus-Green in 2014, Cumulus wants to offer customers an easy way to find out about the sustainability of their purchases as well as the various labels. Many customers are also unaware of how many products are already offered under such a label at Migros.
With Cumulus-Green, however, we do not want to tell you what you should buy. It is purely an additional service for interested customers for information purposes.
The selection of labels was made in cooperation with the WWF and aims to show environmentally friendly choices in as many areas of consumption as possible. All selected labels are checked by external bodies with regard to various sustainability criteria such as the use of fertilizers.
Greetings Natalie
