Viva Organic

Cardiff


In the most upmarket suburb of Cardiff is the city's first zero waste shop. All of its stock is organic, sustainable and from chemical-free, environmentally-friendly sources. Shop guilt-free for cold-pressed juices, wine, coffee, detergent and beauty products or fill reusable containers with grains, nuts and seeds. The fresh produce – bread, fruit and vegetables – is very good indeed.
