The Best from Supermarket & Farm Shop – Truly Sustainable
Can ordering food online actually be sustainable? A frequently asked question that we like to answer: Yes, very much so! We would like to show you here, what Gurkerl as a company does for the environment – honestly and transparently. Because greenwashing is not our thing!

Special Logistics Concept
An equation that looks strange but works. With our special logistics concept, we score points in terms of environmental friendliness: We do not rent multiple intermediate warehouses, but have one large warehouse per location. A single Gurkerl warehouse covers the needs of 40 regular supermarkets. This not only saves space that would otherwise be used for additional supermarkets plus parking lots, but also energy. Our food is efficiently cooled and stays super fresh. This way, we use resources purposefully and responsibly.


Plastic? No, thank you!
Finally, plastic bags are banned EU-wide, but the so-called "shirt" bags, small plastic bags for fruits and vegetables, can still be used. We don't play along with that. Wherever possible, we avoid plastic packaging. At Gurkerl, we pack loose fruits and vegetables in bags made of recycled paper, which you can return to your Gurkerl courier afterwards, and they will be recycled.
