President coulommiers extra fondant 350g - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Président Coulommiers Extra Fondant from Lactalis achieves a perfect European Score of 100, with a breakdown reflecting solid European production credentials. Headquarters and manufacturing each score the maximum 35 points, placing this firmly within the French industrial dairy sector. Ingredients reach the full 10 points, and distribution contributes 15. The certifications dimension scores 0 — no protected designation, organic, or third-party certification is declared — while proximity earns 5 points, indicating a degree of geographical coherence between milk sourcing and production, consistent with the French Milk label.

Manufacturing is confirmed in France, and the French Milk label provides reassurance that the dairy input is domestically sourced, even if no formal geographic protection applies to the Coulommiers style. Unlike AOC or PDO cheeses, Coulommiers is not a legally protected appellation, so the absence of a certification score is expected rather than exceptional.

Within the coulommiers category, this product ranks at the 54th percentile across 37 products, placing it comfortably in the upper half of the category. All products in this dataset share the same perfect overall score, so percentile differences capture nuances in sub-score composition. For a European-minded shopper, the headline takeaway is straightforward: French company, French production, French milk — a coherent and verifiable European supply chain, even without additional third-party accreditation.
