Nurturing who we are
THE MENORCA BIOSPHERE RESERVE BRAND
The Menorca Biosphere Reserve brand is an emblem of sustainability that prioritises those local products and services that are based on criteria that favour the Menorcan environment, identity and culture.
THE TRADEMARK
Guarantee of sustainability
Products, services and businesses with the brand can be identified by the Menorca Biosphere Reserve brand trademark.
This trademark guarantees that when you choose any brand-certified product or service, you are fostering positive impact on an environmental, cultural, social and economic level on the island of Menorca.
A BRAND CREATED BY AND FOR US ALL
The island as we know it today has been made possible possible thanks to the efforts of producers, business owners and artisans whose everyday work shows commitment to the island’s present and future, inspired by a kind of generational inheritance that is based on respect, passion and perseverance.
“Our goal is to create a sustainable management model for the farm that can be extrapolated to other sites in Menorca and around the globe. To do so, we apply specific methods, we quantify them, and finally, we explain them.”
FRANCESC FONT, Finca Algaiarens farm
“As a tour guide, I consider myself an artisan of guided experiences. I adore creating custom-made proposals with my clients’ tastes and interests in mind, organising visits that bring them closer to the various realities of this precious jewel that is the Menorca Biosphere Reserve.”
ISABEL MARTÍN SINTES, Tourist Guide
“Often times, sustainable practices merely require returning to the simplicity of things. Despite its complexities, this sport calls for nothing more than a board and a paddle; enough to fully enjoy the island without any negative impact.”
LLUIS GOMILA, Paddle Tour Menorca
“Menorca continually moves us to find new ideas to help care for our island. I feel a deep commitment to protecting a place that has made me feel at home from day one.”
GLORIA VANNI, Casa Bonita Menorca
“Navegar con tranquilidad y vivir la experiencia más que ver cosas. La filosofía de ir poco a poco y disfrutar del placer de la navegación.”
TEO, Llatina Boats
“Nuestro pilar es el localismo, damos voz a las entidades locales, a la oferta cultural de Ferreries y Menorca, y a la vez conectamos la isla con todo el mundo aportando un toque cosmopolita.”
STÉPHANIE MAHÉ, Hotel Ses Sucreres
Our commitment
There are a plethora of existing quality trademarks, denominations of origin, protected geographical indications or ecolabels, each based on certain criteria. The Menorca Biosphere Reserve trademark is distinguishing in several ways:
Global recognition
The products and services with the trademark are made or carried out in an internationally protected and recognised territory that is the Biosphere Reserve.
Synonymous with Menorca
The Menorca Biosphere Reserve trademark is synonymous with Menorca, as it highlights the importance of an ancient way of doing things that prioritises the protection of our culture, landscape, and ultimately, our identity.
Sustainability, quality and origin
The Menorca Biosphere Reserve trademark is more than just a quality label, a denomination of origin or an ecological certificate. It places all this within a framework of territorial sustainability.
