Most of the fruits and vegetables are Bioland certified, and most of them are from a local farm near Heidelberg. The melon and obviously the bananas are not from Germany.

The Bread is organic whole-grain spelt bread from a local bakery. The grains are probably also local.

The oat milk is from organic locally (Baden-Württemberg) sourced and produced oats.

While baguette can also be whole-grain, I don't think whole-grain baguette costs 1€ a piece. White bread tastes terrible.

Have you ever eaten german whole-grain spelt or rye bread? TBF, I haven't eaten French baguette either.

I think you are understimating the quantities of different bread you can find in our boulangerie.
There is about 40k boulangeries in France.
Whole-grain bread big advantage is a longer conservation, it doesn't taste like paper even a week after being bought unlike a baguette, but it's still best when fresh. The whole grain bread cost 2.3€ here.

Whole-grain is cheaper than white bread, white bread was actually a luxury before moderns time.

Are you comparing a baguette with a regular white bread ?
