Local goods shop is filling the grocery gap in Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue—comments from Prof. Daiva Nielsen

Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, Que., residents have a new spot to do their groceries. After the suburb's only grocery store closed for the second time, B Factory, a locally owned beeswax products shop that had been on the verge of bankruptcy, expanded its space to include a small grocery section called Mon Marché Local.

"I see so many different interesting sources of protein, not only dairy and eggs, but also plant based proteins, with soy beverages, lentils. So these are really nice products for anyone to consume," McGill School of Human Nutrition Professor Daiva Nielsen told CBC News in an interview at the shop.
