The main sector in BioCultura, is organic food although also of relevance are other related subsectors, like certified ecological cosmetics, organic sustainable fashion or bio construction.

There are more and more people whose conscience is awakening”

According to Ángeles Parra, director of BioCultura, “there is no way the organic sector can be stopped. We are not a fad or just another fair; we are the tip of the iceberg for people who want a total change to be able to live in harmony with nature, with each other, with their families and with society”.

Parra stresses the change in awareness of a growing number of people.” There are more and more people whose conscience is awakening. There is a wish to modify our consumer habits, to bet on the regeneration of the earth mother Gaia.  BioCultura offers the best bet for the circular economy and the common good”.

BioCultura, in the words of Ángeles Parra, “is the reflection of the organic sector, a sector in which veganism, superfoods and vegetable milks are growing in strength. The conventional agri-food sector is being much influenced by the organic sector… I wish they would imitate us so that organic food, that treasure, could reach every household.”
