We live in a consumer society dominated by huge multinationals that literally run the world. Globalisation has lowered consumer prices, but at the same time, has lowered the quality of most products and had a very negative impact on the lives of people and on the environment. Within this context, local economies based on human relations and quality services struggle to survive.

At the Orri, we choose the products we buy and the companies we work with critically, trying to support the local economy as much as possible and to avoid supporting big groups that don’t share any of our ideals. We adhere to the French concept of consommaction, the idea that a consumer’s spending habits can change the society he or she lives in. Over the years, we have established and maintained working relationships with numerous local partners. Working on a human scale at the local level guarantees that the money we spend has a positive impact on our region. At the same time, we’ve found that it’s a very satisfying way to work..
