No business trip to Paris would be complete without a stop-off at Rungis Market. Rungis Market is the place where chefs, butchers, market gardeners, fishmongers and florists from all over France get their supplies. Nicknamed “Le Ventre de Paris” (The Belly of Paris), Rungis Market is the largest fresh produce market in the world.
Rungis Market key figures
Today, the city of Rungis is considered to be the heart of the French agricultural economy. Its international market, which opened in 1969, extends over 578 acres, just 4 miles from Paris. Rungis International Market was set up to replace the Halles de Paris, which had become too cramped. 5,000 tonnes of goods pass through it each day, representing nearly €10 million in annual turnover.
At one time closed to the public, Rungis Market has since reopened its doors to individuals. You will no doubt be impressed by the swarm of buyers and producers. This hub of the food industry is divided into different sectors: seafood, meat, dairy, flowers, fruit and vegetables. It is getting busier and busier, with more than 1.2 million buyers in 2016.
As a professional, you can access Rungis Market any day of the week. The Rungis Discovery Pass allows you, for one day, to meet some of the 1,200 suppliers covering the 6 sectors and to test the quality of their goods.
