Coulommiers (21 % MG) - (Plaisir 100 % Crémeux) - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

This Coulommiers from Président, produced under the Lactalis group, earns a perfect score of 100, with the breakdown weighted heavily towards French company headquarters and manufacturing, each contributing 35 points. The milk is sourced from France, with origins listed explicitly as French, and production takes place at multiple sites across Basse-Normandie and Brittany, including a facility in Ille-et-Vilaine. This geographical concentration within France underpins the strong manufacturing and proximity scores.

The ingredients score reaches the maximum of 10, reflecting clear French milk origins. Certifications score 0, as the product carries no organic or protected designation labels — though it does hold a Saveurs de l'Année award, a French consumer recognition scheme, and a French Milk label. Distribution contributes the full 15 points, and proximity scores 5.

With a percentile of 54, this product outscores 54% of the 37 products in the coulommiers category — a mid-range position despite its perfect total score, suggesting that many competitors in this segment also score highly. The absence of a protected designation of origin or organic certification keeps the certifications component at zero, which is the only structural gap. For consumers seeking a well-sourced, French-produced soft cheese with full transparency on milk origins and a recognised quality award, this Président Coulommiers is a credible choice.
