Founded in 1991 in the South of France, near Saint-Tropez, the company produces traditional Provençal specialties inspired by the rich culinary heritage of the region, such as ratatouille (a ready-to-eat vegetable dish), bouillabaisse (a traditional seafood soup), tapenade (an olive spread), aioli (a garlic sauce), and more. Most of the products are presented in glass jars, sometimes as themed gift sets such as the “Seafood Selection” or “Tasting Selection”. The company develops long-term relationships with regional producers who operate according to specific quality requirements, ensuring a reliable supply of high-quality ingredients for its recipes. Purchasing programs ensure a regular supply of seasonal vegetables and whenever possible, the company works with suppliers located close to its production facilities. Its fish soup, for example, is prepared using locally sourced rockfish from the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. In addition to supplying products under its own brand, the company also offers private-label manufacturing capabilities. Today, to expand its international presence, the company is looking for experienced commercial partners capable of distributing and promoting its products in new markets, with a particular focus on the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Scandinavia. Advantages and innovations: • Over 30 years of experience in food production • High-quality ingredients • Preservative- and colour-free recipes, in line with consumer demand for more natural products. • High food safety standards, including HACCP procedures and external microbiological testing. • IFS certified since 2023 and PME+ certified since 2023 (recognising responsible and sustainable business practices). • A combination of traditional French culinary expertise and professional industrial production standards. • Private-label manufacturing capabilities, allowing the company to develop products according to customers' brands and requirements. Expected role of a partner: The company is looking for experienced distributors and wholesalers to develop its presence in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Scandinavia, while remaining open to opportunities in other countries. Partners should have at least three years of experience in their local market, preferably with an established network of retailers, department stores, delicatessen shops, gourmet stores and/or specialty food outlets. The partner’s role will be to purchase and distribute the products locally, developing sales through retailers and other relevant food-sector customers. The company is not looking for commission-based agents. Instead, selected partners will purchase the products directly at attractive wholesale prices, enabling them to offer competitive resale prices and develop the market over the long term.
