Biovie | Living and Organic Food for Everyone

Biovie, the strength of the living

As a true gateway to living and organic food, our goal is to provide quality products while sharing knowledge and skills around this lifestyle. In addition to supporting those who already practice it, what we also aim to do is help people who are starting this transition or who want to know how to become raw foodists.

Making organic and living food accessible to the greatest number of people

At Biovie, you will find a variety of healthy products at an attractive price on our online store. Equipment with a very good quality/price ratio to get you equipped. But also detailed information to better understand what you are buying as well as training to get inspired.

We want to enable everyone to easily learn or develop skills and new habits to bring more vitality to their plate. Whether you want to incorporate a bit more raw food into your diet, or aim for a 100% raw food diet. Because you have to start somewhere!

We refuse to think that living food is reserved for connoisseurs and people with a marginal lifestyle. Or that organic products are only accessible to those who can afford them.

Yes, what we want is also to break down preconceived ideas! By providing both raw or minimally processed products, resources, and training for tous.tes. And above all, at more affordable prices than one might think.

Discover living food through the story of Eric Viard and Biovie:

Why do we care about organic products?

In organic farming, farmers are required to adhere to a number of principles and agricultural practices, which include:

The use of natural fertilizers such as compost, manure, and green manure, rather than synthetic chemical fertilizers.

Crop rotation to improve soil fertility and reduce the risks of diseases and pests.

Ecological management of pests and diseases, which involves encouraging natural predators and using biological control products only as a last resort.

Maintaining biodiversity on farms, particularly by leaving grassy strips and hedges to provide a habitat for local wildlife and flora.

Respect for animal welfare standards, such as appropriate living conditions and a healthy, natural diet.

Organic farmers are required to implement agricultural practices that are respectful of the environment and health, but they are not responsible for specific results in terms of yields or crop quality. Additionally, organic producers are subject to strict standards regarding traceability and certification.

All of these practices are a sign of respect for the planet and living beings. Organic products are more nutritious, have fewer harmful effects on our health (due to fewer chemical residues), and help build a more sustainable agriculture that adapts to climate changes.

So why not 100% organic?

Organic sectors do not exist

The first reason is that sometimes the supply chains simply do not exist. This is the case with freeze-dried fruits from Thailand, which are not organic. When we approached our supplier, they simply told us that there was no organic durian supply chain in Thailand, which is still true.

So, we started this supply chain with the aim of connecting our supplier with organic producers near them, which is a painstaking task that takes time. Nevertheless, it is in progress, and we hope to one day be able to offer you an organic version of some of our freeze-dried fruits picked at maturity.

Organic quality without certification

In the same vein, other products follow organic recommendations without being certified, such as avocado honey, harvested in the middle of organic avocado fields.

In other cases, like seaweed tartare made mostly of certified organic seaweed, only certain condiments are not organic. Clearly, we could not have started with organic directly at the time, and currently, 100% organic remains difficult, particularly because of the additional cost.

At our place, you will find other quality criteria:

The maturity of products

The fresh and freeze-dried fruits we offer ripen on the trees and not in cold storage rooms.

The social aspect

This is a point on which we personally ensure, whether with our suppliers and their employees or with our own collaborators.

Raw quality

She is present throughout our entire range. Once again, with an exception that proves the rule for our faux coffee Lupi, which is roasted, but allows some people to quit real coffee, and we are convinced that this benefit outweighs the inconvenience of roasting.

A key player in organic and living food

Our commitment is confirmed every day with the trust of our customers and our partners.

Thanks to them, the company Biovie continues to thrive alongside them.

Our values: People and the Environment

Biovie aims to be a family-run, activist company in the service of life. Our company proudly embodies its values throughout its entire chain of activities, while also promoting them to the general public.

Quality

We guarantee optimal quality for each of our products. It is our priority. The majority are certified organic or adhere to ethical processes when organic is not possible or does not yet exist (example: freeze-dried durian does not exist in organic form).

Authenticity

We are the first consumers of the products we sell and the first users of the devices we manufacture, such as the Easygreen sprouter, the JuiceMeUp extractor, or the MixMeUp blender. This guarantees that we offer items whose qualities have been evaluated and verified by us, and whose strengths and weaknesses we personally know.

Traceability

We systematically meet with each of the producers and manufacturers of our products. Except during COVID, we spend several months a year traveling. This way, we personally verify their origin and production conditions, so we can offer them to you with complete confidence, and this, in addition to our organic certification with Ecocert.

Ethics

We personally ensure, or through third-party programs, that our products are obtained under dignified working conditions for employees. And the well-being of Biovie employees is also one of our priorities.

Fair Trade

By reducing intermediaries, we guarantee the fairest price, from producer to consumer. Whenever possible, we prioritize French or European products, and when we import, we favor fair trade (such as for tiger nuts or coconut). As much as possible, we ensure that the economic added value created from the processing or packaging of our products remains in the country of origin. For example, we freeze-dry our fruits picked at maturity in Thailand on-site rather than importing them and freeze-drying them in France.

Eco-responsible approach

Since 2007, we have paid particular attention to ensuring that our activity has the least possible environmental impact. From the mode of transport, the choice of recycled or bio-based plastic materials to the least impactful product packaging possible, our choices are guided by respect for the environment. However, some aspects of our activity remain improvable, such as the use of recycled plastics, for example, where we encounter the non-existence of bio-based or recycled plastics approved for food contact. Nevertheless, we strive to improve our processes and are receptive to constructive criticism.

Listening to our customers

By staying attentive to your needs, we continuously adjust our offerings. For example, by providing references in our store based on your suggestions, or by adapting their packaging volume according to your feedback. Some of our products have been suggested to us by pediatricians, therapists, doctors, or customers. Feel free to make a suggestion!

Innovation

When a product remains difficult to find despite existing demand, we are not afraid to create new supply chains. We have done this, particularly for fresh coconuts, tiger nuts, and even whole aloe vera leaves, which we were the first to introduce in France.

Committed Editor

To print our books as committed publishers, we have chosen for the past 15 years the most ecological and social printing company in France: Pure Impression. It uses vegetable-based inks, operates on solar energy, practices gender-equal pay, and uses electric vehicles.

Innovative manufacturer

We are always looking for the most environmentally friendly solution in the manufacturing of our devices, favoring recycled plastics, bio-based plant-based plastics with mineral or plant fillers, or plastics combining both solutions when possible for food contact.
