From family-owned company to dairy industry’s global leader
Created in 1933 by André Besnier in Laval, Lactalis Group is a family-owned company settled in rural areas, which became dairy industry’s global leader and a major player of employment.
True to its first trade, cheesemonger, Lactalis Group, the first AOP cheese producer, contributes to the development of a rural economy open to the word. With a presence in around a hundred countries, Lactalis Group counts 80 000 collaborators and 250 production sites today.
A unique dairy expertise
Across all dairy product categories (milk consumption, ultra-fresh milk, cheese, butter, cream and dairy ingredients), we develop in the long run a portfolio of a hundred brands, made up of major emblematic brands as well as local or regional brands. In keeping with local food cultures and consumption modes, our ambition is to offer healthy, gourmet and accessible products to the greatest number of people.
