How do products reach you? Some of them pass through the National Interest Market (MIN), now known as the Grand Marché des Alpes. Come visit this place and discover how it works.
The Grand Marché des Alpes is a logistics platform dedicated to the wholesale distribution of food products. Open from 4:00 a.m., it allows professionals, restaurateurs, and retailers to source supplies from the twenty companies located on site. Fruits and vegetables, meat, cheeses, dry goods: a wide variety of products are available. With a commitment to responsible practices, the market prioritizes local producers and short supply chains. 

Meet at 7am, but it's for a good cause! The visit is limited to 25 places, and reserved for UGA staff and students.
