Founded in 1905 in the Vendée region, Fleury Michon has grown from a small family‑run charcuterie into one of France’s leading food companies. Over five generations, the group has remained proudly independent while expanding its expertise across three major supermarket pillars: premium charcuterie, chilled ready‑made meals, and surimi. With 10 production sites across the country and more than 3,000 employees, the company now ships over a million products every day, making it a familiar presence in households nationwide.

In 2015, Fleury Michon formalized its mission—“Helping you eat better every day”—marking a decisive shift toward nutritional transparency and sustainable food practices. A pioneer of the Nutri‑Score system, the brand now counts over 90% of its products rated A, B, or C, and has broadened its offer with plant‑based alternatives such as the “Tranches Végé” range. Its international reach has also grown significantly, particularly through airline catering, where it now serves major carriers across North America and Europe.

In recent years, the company has strengthened its commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility, focusing on “le manger mieux” and environmental stewardship. This includes reducing salt across all product lines, improving packaging recyclability, and implementing circular water‑management systems at its industrial sites. Despite economic volatility and rising raw‑material costs, Fleury Michon remains a cornerstone of the French food landscape, consistently ranking among the country’s most‑purchased brands and continuing to shape everyday eating habits.
