"Frasco a Frasco" was born from the need to change purchasing habits, to adopt more sustainable practices in everyday life. For the founders, Mariana and Mário, and for me, it was with the birth of our children that we became (even) more aware that behaviors must be changed as quickly as possible, in order to provide the next generations with a beautiful and healthy place to live.

Easy and practical purchase
We want to bring a more sustainable and practical purchasing solution, with the least possible impact on the environment with each purchase. As you know, buying in bulk is seen as more time-consuming compared to a large supermarket, but it's actually not true. "Frasco a Frasco", together with our partner "Balanças Marques", has developed a digital tare system that makes buying in bulk with our own containers much easier and more practical. In order to make the purchase experience even easier, we have an online store with home delivery, in-store pickup and deliveries to predefined locations such as companies, associations,... We are partnering with companiers in the city, in order to deliver purchases made on our website by its employees, saving time and the environment, since only one trip is made to serve several families.
Decreasing food waste
With bulk purchases, in addition to reducing our footprint through the use of less packaging, we also have a smaller impact by purchasing only the required quantity - we only take what we need, reducing food waste, which is one of the biggest problems in our society.
Biological Products
At "Frasco a Frasco" we combine sustainability with health: our food is of superior quality, nutritious and organic, so we can have a healthy diet. Studies prove time and time again the close relationship between what we eat and our health: what we eat is directly related to our well-being. Here you will always find organic products, as many as possible of national production, of quality and nutritious.
In Bulk
We encourage our customers to bring their own containers, but in case they forget, we have "Community jars" available for free, promoting a circular economy and an even smaller environmental impact with every purchase. The containers are previously washed and disinfected and are available to be filled with what you need. Whenever our customers bring their own containers or use the "Community jars", we carry out the digital tare of the containers so that they only fill it with what they need and in the end we go back to weighing again. Our offer in bulk ranges from foods products, cleaning products, cosmetics and products for animals.
Sustainable
In sustainable products, we have several products for our day-to-day life, from personal care to home products. In personal care, we have several items for the body, face, hair, intimate hygiene, oral hygiene and acessories. For home we have kitchen acessories, detergents, among others. Books are also present in our store because information is one of the best tools we have to be able to be better every day.
Compra fácil e prática
Queremos trazer uma solução de compras mais sustentável e prática, com o menor impacto possível no ambiente em cada compra. Como sabem a compra a granel é vista como mais demorada em comparação com as grandes superfícies, mas não é verdade. Na Frasco a Frasco devolvemos em conjunto com os nossos parceiros Balanças Marques, um sistema de tara digital que torna a compra a granel com recipientes próprios muito mais fácil e prática. De forma a facilitarmos a compra, temos uma loja online com entregas ao domicílio, levantamento na loja e entregas em locais predefinidos como empresas, associações,... Estamos a realizar parcerias com empresas da cidade, de forma a entregarmos as compras realizadas no nosso site pelos seus colaboradores, poupando tempo e o ambiente, uma vez que apenas é feita uma viagem para servir várias famílias.
Diminuir o desperdício alimentar
Com a compra a granel para além de diminuirmos a nossa pegada através da utilização de menos embalagens também temos um menor impacto com a compra na quantidade necessária, apenas levamos o que necessitamos diminuindo o desperdício alimentar que é dos maiores problemas da nossa sociedade.
Produtos Biológicos
Na Frasco a Frasco aliamos a sustentabilidade com a saúde, os nossos alimentos de qualidade superior, nutritivos e biológicos, de forma a conseguirmos ter uma alimentação saudável. Sabemos que cada vez mais existe uma relação entre a nossa alimentação e a nossa saúde, aquilo que comemos está diretamente relacionado com o nosso bem-estar. Aqui vão encontrar sempre produtos biológicos, o maior número possível de produção nacional, de qualidade e nutritivos.
Granel
Privilegiamos que os nossos fregueses tragam os seus próprios recipientes, mas caso se esqueçam temos os “Frascos da Comunidade” disponíveis gratuitamente, promovendo a economia circular e um impacto ambiental ainda menor em cada compra. Os recipientes são previamente lavados e desinfetados e estão à disposição para serem abastecidos com aquilo que necessitarem. Sempre que os nossos fregueses trazem os próprios recipientes ou utilizam os “Frascos da Comunidade”, realizamos a tara digital dos recipientes para depois encherem apenas com o que necessitam e no final voltamos a pesar novamente.
A oferta a Granel vai desde os produtos alimentares, produtos de limpeza, de cosmética e produtos para animais.

We want to be more
In addition to the products available in store, we also host informal talks and workshops that we promote with the aim of bringing more information and strategies for everyone to learn more and do better.
Jar by Jar (Frasco a Frasco), we take care of the Planet!
Reduction of Food Waste
We want to be the pantry of our customers, instead of accumulating large quantities at home, they can take only what they need at that moment or even try a small quantity of a new product. When you need more or if you like what you tried, you can visit us again. Buy only what you need, tomorrow we will still be here if you need more.
Organic Products
Organic farming respects soil cycles and, therefore, it makes sense for us to offer a range of products that respects the cycles of nature, preserving it. In this way, we combine health with sustainability, as we know that organic products are better for our well-being and for our planet, in addition to being tastier.
No Packaging
Since our store is an organic bulk grocery store, we do not have packaged food products. We have a wide range of products in bulk, without packaging, from food, to detergents and cosmetics. Bring Your Owns Containers - this is one of our mainstays. By bringing your own containers (jars, bags, packaging) you are reducing the impact of each purchase, since no new packaging is used for your purchase. If you forget to bring them or you need more, use our "Community jars", as they are here especially for you.

Home Deliveries
Since we want to make buying in bulk more practical and easy, we have at your disposal an online store with different possibilities for delivery or collection of the order, in order to make the best use of your time. The options we have are in-store pickup, home delivery and delivery to partner companies. All of these options save shopping time as we prepare the purchases for our dear customers. With the option of delivery to partner companies, we will also be able to make transportation more sustainable, thus reducing emissions, since with just one trip we take the purchases of several customers to their place to work. When dispatching orders, we use boxes and fillings reused from orders in which we are unable to deliver only the product container. We seek with our partners to supply products with the least possible packaging and with more environmentally friendly materials, favoring packaging with a long service life and allowing them to be reused, with preference for compostable materials, 100% recycled or 100% recyclable.
