Bravo! Last Saturday at Migros Hofmatt Kriens, I was able to buy potatoes from Val Mustair whose skins didn't look very nice because of a scab. I would be very supportive if Migros offered many more of these products in the fruit and vegetable section. It would be a real eye-opener if Migros continued to develop in this area. Consumers will thank Migros for this and will be pleased to be able to support farmers with their honest products. Please keep up the good work!
That's all well and good. But I assume that there are also farmers in the Kriens region whose "Härdöpfu" have not met the exaggerated requirements of the "consumers". So it would definitely not be necessary to cart the potatoes that don't meet the requirements halfway across Switzerland first. But our logistics madness is probably too far advanced for that. As I said, a good approach, but in my opinion not implemented very consistently. Kind regards AeschlimattPuur

Hello Aeschlimattpuur, thank you for your message. Normally, the idea is that the non-standard products are sold in the corresponding region. In this case, the Eastern Switzerland Cooperative was unfortunately unable to purchase the potatoes, which is why the Lucerne Cooperative stepped in as a sales partner without further ado, as it has a good and cooperative relationship with the supplier of Bündner Bergkartoffeln. Kind regards, Angela

Thank you for the answer, that sounds good. It's just sometimes difficult to understand and, as I said, today's requirements and marketing ideas are sometimes not always easy to understand. e schöne Obe...liebe Grüsse AeschlimattPuur

Sometimes I really don't understand why non-standard food cannot be sold. So much has to be thrown away by farmers. It really makes my heart ache... It's clear that such a changeover can't happen overnight. But some products could be saved if every Migros had a small section of different-looking food. That way, at least some of the products could be saved. I am convinced that the products would be bought. Regardless of whether they are crooked or smaller than usual.
