The qt8 market from desolation to innovation
Transcript of The qt8 market from desolation to innovation
In my neighborhood there was a MARKET
Lost “M” Where I’ll go to shop?
Art or Food?
When I was a boy
I was used to buy
here: bread , milk,
eggs, cheese,
(paper) notebook
(walking distance!) Pleasant near park
Public owned service Typical elder
resident, no car
A few months ago: The last days
One of the last shops
Poor lightening, smell of old
It was the Economic Downturn & Competition
from Larger Malls…
Dust, empty
shelves,
Closed doors
Amarcord = memory of the past Smell of
fresh bread: “MICHETTA”
Milk tetrapack like LEGO…
Hill of the green park near the QT8 market…
Core values: 1) You could walk there to shop and meet other people 2) Shopkeepers talked to you, some where friends, too
QT8 market!
What’s happened a few monts ago
A public competition by the City Council for: a SMART Market… … the Outcome
The first short supply chain market
An entrepreneur is betting on it… … and a local neighborhood committee was involved, too!
Translation: We can plan togheter the new local Market
Let’s Dream
Slow Food & Coldiretti Farmers’ markets
1. Farmers not sellers: meet who made it, learn how
2. You can see, smell, TASTE it 3. Lost flavors, traditional food
re-discovery, healthy 4. You ARE what you EAT
A TERRIFIC vision for an organic,
sustainable, QT8 MARKET that it is
also a cultural & human friendly space
Think about: Also Grom and eatitaly started small !
