This Swiss specialty food store is so photogenic, each section looks like it could appear in a print ad. A combination butcher, wine, dairy, produce and general grocery shop, Terre Vaudoise is a picturesque boutique gourmet food retailer that boasts an impressive layout and merchandising by Swiss design firm ZAP Design.
A highlight of Terre Vaudoise is its produce section, which mimics the wooden stalls of a farmers market in its display of fresh, vibrantly colored fruits and vegetables. Above the produce stall hangs is a wooden rail from which hangs a selection of cured meats. The clean, refined wooden stalls serve as a reminder of the emphasis of the Swiss specialty food store on high quality, all-natural ingredients.
