In the heart of Puerto Varas, La Yunta has transformed the everyday shopping experience into a return to origins, offering a wide variety of bulk foods that promote both mindful eating and waste reduction.
Maida and her mother Paula have created a welcoming space where every detail is carefully considered, from the presentation of their products to the personalized service they provide to their customers. Their commitment to sustainability is reflected in initiatives such as offering discounts to those who bring their own containers, promoting environmentally responsible practices.
Their selection ranges from legumes, pasta, and cereals to nuts, spices, and sweet treats like chocolate chips, allowing customers to buy exactly what they need and reduce food waste. This neighborhood business has successfully combined the tradition of old-fashioned general stores with contemporary values, creating a space where the community enjoys coming not only to stock up but also to connect with a more conscious way of consuming.
