Coulommiers (20 % MG) - (Plaisir 100 % Crémeux) 10 % Gratuit - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

This Président Coulommiers achieves a perfect score of 100, with company headquarters and manufacturing each contributing 35 points, reflecting full French grounding at both corporate and production level. The cheese is manufactured by the Société Fromagère de Retiers, a subsidiary of the Lactalis Group, with sites in Bretagne and Basse-Normandie. The ingredients score of 10, distribution of 15, and proximity of 5 complete a supply chain that is entirely contained within France. Certifications contribute 0, as no organic or protected designation label is carried.

Within the coulommiers category of 37 products, this offering outscores 54% of competitors — a result that places it just above the midpoint. The product carries a green dot and Eco Emballages mark, indicating participation in a French packaging collection scheme, though these do not affect the supply chain score. No Nutriscore or quality origin label is listed, so the product's positioning rests on its domestic manufacturing credentials.

Coulommiers is a soft cow's milk cheese with a long tradition in French cheesemaking, and this version maintains clear connections to that heritage through its Breton and Norman production base. The Lactalis Group is one of the largest dairy operations in the world, meaning that while the geographical footprint is domestic, the corporate context is that of a major industrial producer. Consumers who prioritise French manufacturing and local milk sourcing will find this product meets those criteria, even in the absence of certification-based endorsements.
