I can’t deny the fashion and lifestyle shopping is incredible at HighPoint Shopping Centre but my favourite little gem is Graina Bulk Foods. The go to destination for a no-waste bulk food shopping experience located in the Fresh Food Precinct on level 2.
Graina stocks a wide selection of organic muesli, lentils, legumes, dried fruit, nuts, seeds, various superfoods, organic teas, chocolates, snacks, personal care, flours and so much more!
Everything Graina offers is in a no-waste bulk food concept so you can buy as little or as much as you want. Hello to no more food wastage and half open packets sitting opened on the pantry shelves.
Nut butters and Nut Mylks made fresh in store. From almonds to hazelnuts to macadamia and more! You can even customise Nut Mylks with delicious additions like vanilla or cinnamon!
Graina’s waste-free packaging is not only good for the environment but also kind on your purse. Paper bags are provided in store or bring your own containers and jars. This eliminates costs of fancy packaging, branding and advertising. If you ask me brown paper bags and glass jars overflowing in your eco tote are oh so eco chic!
Make a shopping list, bring your pantry containers, bring your jars, peruse the fashion stores and then go experience no-waste bulk food shopping at Graina all whilst at HighPoint. Hot tip – don’t forget to grab some milk chocolate coated almonds, they are omg so good!!
