Green Commerce Markets for Sustainable Urban Food Systems

This project’s support for green markets has three axes – social, economic and environmental:Support healthy diets for all citizens: Introducing quality badges and signage in Barcelona’s 38 food markets, based on strict standards; making fresh, local and healthy products broadly available; fighting against social inequalities with neighbourhood-focused activities.Boost sustainable local economies: Generating opportunities for farmers who produce locally and ecologically, facilitating the distribution of local products and their commercialisation in short circuits.Combat the climate emergency: Reducing the carbon footprint with solar and geothermal energy in markets; reducing food waste; and increasing waste recycling and reuse.
