Walk into De Groene Passage and discover various sustainable shops under one roof. In this ecological department store you’ll find seven retailers with a human, animal and environmentally friendly offer. De Groene Passage has now been in existence for 25 years and the companies have been passed on from generation to generation with great love and passion.

De Groene Passage offers a full sustainable experience. Are you looking for healthy food without synthetic flavors and unnecessary sugars? Then do your shopping at the organic supermarket Gimsel. At the bio-craft butcher shop De Groene Weg you can find a good piece of organic meat.

As soon as you walk into the beautiful furniture store Van Binnen, you’ll be amazed. Everything in the store is made with respect for people and nature. Treat yourself to a lovely wool plaid or luxurious eco bedding from Yumeko. Looking for a beautiful, sustainable gift that will make both the receiver and the maker happy? Then visit the fair trade gift shop Wereldwinkel Rotterdam Centrum.

Got hungry after shopping? At restaurant Spirit you can enjoy, from 08:00 to 23:00, a delicious organic and vegetarian breakfast, lunch or dinner buffet. You can scoop up whatever you want here and your plate will be weighed at the cash register. The coffee here is also delicious!

Pamper yourself at beauty salon Aditi or learn new skills at the Gimsel Academy. They also have an exhibition space with temporary collections to admire. Good news, because you can also buy them if you have fallen in love with one of the works. As you can see, there is a lot to discover at the Groene Passage!
