European Score analysis

U's Mozzarella maxi au lait de vache pasteurisé is a cow's-milk mozzarella achieving a perfect European Score of 100. The breakdown gives 35 points to company headquarters, 35 to manufacturing, 10 to ingredients, 15 to distribution, and 5 to proximity, with certifications scoring 0. The product originates from the European Union broadly, and is sold in Austria and France, keeping distribution within Europe. No manufacturing facility or certification labels are specified beyond Nutriscore Grade C. Within the cow mozzarella category, which contains 32 products, this mozzarella ranks above 84% of its peers — a strong result in a competitive category. The broad EU-level origin claim, while less specific than a named country or region, still satisfies the European provenance requirements that underpin the score. For a European-minded shopper, the 84th percentile rank is a strong signal that most cow mozzarella products score lower, possibly because many involve non-European dairy sourcing. The Nutriscore Grade C indicates a moderate nutritional profile. The absence of certifications and the generic EU-level origin designation are the primary areas where greater supply chain transparency could add value for discerning shoppers.
