Coulommiers 21% - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Président's Coulommiers scores a perfect 100, placing it at the 54th percentile among 37 products in the coulommiers category — a result shared by several strong competitors. The breakdown is straightforward: 35 points each for French headquarters and manufacturing, 15 for distribution, 5 for proximity, and 10 for ingredients, with no certifications. Origins are listed as France, and manufacturing is confirmed in Normandy, a region synonymous with high-quality dairy production.

The product carries labels indicating it is made with 100% Norman milk and manufactured in Normandy, which adds a layer of regional specificity beyond a simple French origin declaration. Normandy's dairy credentials are among the strongest in Europe, with rich pastureland and a long tradition of soft cheeses. The high calcium label is a nutritional descriptor rather than a certification. Despite Président being a large commercial brand, the Norman milk sourcing and French manufacturing give the product a genuinely local character. For a coulommiers at a mainstream retail level, this represents a well-grounded, regionally traceable product that performs consistently at the top of its category.
