Be a producer - artisan
Being listed at Growy and Tasty offers a valuable showcase for your know-how and your products. We showcase your creations and present you as a producer or craftsman. What’s more, this visibility attracts new customers and strengthens your reputation.
We seek to be as transparent as possible with our customers by providing as much information as possible. However, there may be an error on our platform. If this is the case, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will correct this very quickly.
Of course ! We encourage you to send us a photo of your choice and a text about yourself. This will enable our customers to get to know you better, even if they can’t meet you in person.
We are committed to highlighting you as much as possible on our platform. So if a logistical problem arises, such as a temporary stock shortage, you’ll stay on our list of producers and craftsmen. However, if the collaboration ends, we will remove your profile.
We do not ask for a minimum price or a percentage of the price of your products. So you’re free to tell us what price you want. It’s true that prices may be slightly higher than in supermarkets. However, our customers know that they are paying a fair price for the product and the producer.
What’s more, we set our prices according to supply and demand.
Your products
We choose small producers who specialize in their products to guarantee the best possible quality. However, if we can’t find one, we’ll select a larger producer or artisan. We make sure they comply with our product quality charter. Please let us know if you know of a producer via our interactive map on the “Our producers and artisans” page . You can also contact us directly. We’d be delighted to feature a small producer or artisan we don’t know.
We guarantee the quality of our products by selecting small-scale producers and artisans. We give preference to those who practice sustainable production or offer natural products. In this way, our customers benefit from high-quality, environmentally-friendly products.

My subscriptions and sponsorship
Subscriptions for our products will be available in the future. At the moment, we are working on the details of our offer. You will be able to order products such as olive oil and olives at regular intervals. What’s more, these products will be delivered straight to your door.
We are in discussion with several producers to offer you the possibility of sponsoring their olive trees or beehives. You’ll be able to do so directly on our site, for greater simplicity. We’ll let you know as soon as this option becomes available.
