Innovating for zero waste

Sustainable bulk products

Our objective at Jean Bouteille is to make bulk the new standard of consumption to bring zero waste into every room in the house. We are therefore developing a maximum number of bulk products so that every citizen can find an alternative to single-use pre-packaged products close to home. Each of the producers in our catalogue is carefully selected to enable everyone to eat better and reduce their waste with quality products that are committed to the environment.

Our product families

Our product catalogue is differentiated according to the distribution networks, we have a catalogue dedicated to our bulk store and partner organic shops while another is proposed specifically for supermarkets.

Today we offer more than 70 references with 6 complementary product ranges, perfectly adapted to self-service bulk distribution.
