FOOD INDUSTRIES

Eating well, today and tomorrow

THERE IS BRETAGNE FOR TASTES

The challenge is considerable: feed more men and women, both now and in the future.

How can this be achieved? By investing more in

research and development, improving our industrial

processes, providing quality products at affordable

prices, eliminating waste, preserving the environment, etc. In short, it’s about more

efficient production using fewer resources. This is what Bretagne has been doing for

nearly a century.
