Our philosophy, or rather what is important to us!
On the one hand, it is the special thing that is important to us. The particularity of the valley and its fruits, the Lasa marble in its particularity, and the processing of all of it with a lot of love and joy.
On the other hand, there are the encounters and relationships with our customers. The joy and enthusiasm when they enjoy our products or give them away with joy.
And so we take up local delicacies, positively reinforce and refine their value and uniqueness and thereby sensitize the population to high-quality food products.
