Choose sustainable quality – choose local brands

Why choose local brands? Because by doing so, you contribute to sustainability. Find out about local brands in green destinations that ensure the quality and authenticity of products.

Local is sustainable

Local food and products are an important aspect of sustainability. People in some green destinations are well aware of this and have developed their own local quality brands. With these brands, they ensure the authenticity of dishes, ingredients and products that are typical of individual areas.

From local flavours to hand-crafted products

Brands or certificates guarantee that a product is made from local ingredients, that it was made by local artisans, and that it reflects the local tradition and the creativity of people living in a particular destination.

Gastronomy on the path of sustainability

Sustainability is deeply rooted in Slovenian cuisine. Many farmers and winemakers have switched to organic food and wine production methods. An increasing number of restaurants and chefs opt for the best ingredients obtained from local producers and draw their inspiration from the local tradition. All this is reflected in the rich flavours of the dishes that end up on the plate.

Tasty ingredients from the local environment

Short supply chains in addition to seasonal and high-quality ingredients are increasingly becoming key elements in the preparation of menus in both traditional and modern restaurants. Connecting with local suppliers is coming to the fore, and connections between food service providers are becoming ever more important. That is why, in some destinations, you will find "brands" with the common thread of gastronomic features of a particular area.

Quality is in the details

Everything starts with production, where we follow the heritage of our ancestors and respect the natural environment. A short distance "from garden to table" guarantees fresh and full flavours. That is why Slovenian dishes are so special and delicious. Perhaps you can bring a piece of these delicacies into your home.

Eat like locals

Respect for local tradition and eating habits is part of sustainable tourism. That is why you should try to eat like locals. Find out what Slovenians like to eat on holidays and weekdays, where we obtain ingredients, and how you know that the food you eat is really homemade.
