This is the story of Sandrine and Caroline, two friends who wanted to start a business after a disappointing career.
They wanted to open a business that resembled them, close to their values and pioneers within the destination.
The idea of opening a cosy, warm shop, favouring "bulk" and choosing local products was an obvious choice.
This is how Sandrine and Caroline's local shop was born in January 2022, "O cœur du vrac".
La Vague du Vrac has a wide variety of products.
The products are presented in glass bins.
There are many spices, rice, pasta, various seeds and berries, syrups, alcohols, teas, washing powder, soaps, solid shampoos and toothpastes, menstrual panties or even charcoal and ceramic beads to clean your water...
Her best-selling product? The Almond, Apple and Hemp Seed Energy Balls!
We offer a wide range of French products in bulk, from food to cosmetics to household products.
Whether they are organic, gluten-free, artisanal, handmade or not, all products are meticulously chosen to satisfy all tastes!
Her best-selling product? Rony's tablets from Fréjus
The shop offers a variety of products to suit everyone's tastes, which is why we find organic, gluten-free and vegan products, but not only that!
The managers are aware of the ecological impact and wish to have as little carbon impact as possible, to encourage the development of local shops and to offer mainly French products, in collaboration with local producers and tailors.
