There\u2019s no time any more to seek out what is best, and people shop in hypermarkets as a matter of convenience. This is what lay behind Pedro Gon\u00e7alves\u2019s business idea, which he called &#8220;Mercearia Bio&#8221; (the organic grocery). This is a concept based on an online shop, where you can look and order from the comfort of your home, but it also focuses on proximity between producer, distributor and consumer. All of this means that you can be just one click away from having certificated organic produce delivered to your door.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>ECO123 asks<\/h2>\n<p>F\u00e1tima Torres, producer, Lagos<br \/>\n<strong>What do you think of the idea of the Organic Grocery?<\/strong><br \/>\nI think it\u2019s very interesting; people can have the products delivered at home. And then it is also good to bridge the gap between the producer and the consumer.<\/p>\n<p>Pedro Gon\u00e7alves, distributor and owner, Portim\u00e3o<br \/>\n<strong>Is proximity and trust between producers, distributors and end consumers the future?<\/strong><br \/>\nPeople\u2019s concern is freshness, and the closer the better because the environmental footprint is smaller and the local economy develops. This symbiosis leads to confidence in an improved product and at a better price.<\/p>\n<p>Alison Fayers Kerr, consumer, Aljezur<br \/>\n<strong>Why should people opt for this kind of service?<\/strong><br \/>\nI prefer it like this, I can be certain that I have good products and I like to support Portuguese producers and I order on the internet at whatever time is convenient. I think this is the future.<\/p>\n<p>see video from ECO TV &#8211; <a title=\"From the land to your table \u2013 Video\" href=\"http:\/\/eco123.info\/en\/eco-tv-en\/from-the-land-to-your-table-video\/\">From the land to your table<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"box info  alignleft\" style=\"width:90%\"><div class=\"box-inner-block\"><i class=\"fa tie-shortcode-boxicon\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\n<strong>Contact.<\/strong><br \/>\nRua 25 de Abril, 45A, Companheira &#8211; 8500-321 Portim\u00e3o<br \/>\nTel.: 282 476 686 Mobile: 961 563 777 (Pedro Gon\u00e7alves) | 927 420 701 (Nuno Sequeira)<br \/>\nEmail: <a title=\"merceariabio email\" href=\"mailto:mb@merceariabio.pt \" target=\"_blank\">mb@merceariabio.pt <\/a><br \/>\nWebpage:<a title=\"Merceariabio Website\" href=\" http:\/\/www.merceariabio.pt\" target=\"_blank\"> http:\/\/www.merceariabio.pt<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;We are what we eat&#8221; \u2013 but this raises an important question.
