Sako Bread

Sako bread is a bread sold by the piece on the pantry shelf at Dekenet Al Nes. Bread is a staple at almost every table, eaten alongside meals, used to scoop up dips and stews, or filled to make sandwiches for school, work or a quick lunch. It can also be toasted or warmed before serving. Dekenet Al Nes is a package-free grocery store in Baaqline, in the Chouf, started as a solidarity initiative by a group of Lebanese young people after the economic crisis that began in 2019. The shop aims to keep basic necessities affordable for families and individuals while reducing waste. Customers are encouraged to bring their own bags and containers, which helps cut plastic and single-use packaging. You can find Sako bread on the shelf at the Baaqline branch.
