Cœur Complice - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Carrefour's Cœur Complice double cream cheese achieves a perfect score of 100 in the double cream cheeses category, with a breakdown anchored by French manufacturing and headquarters. Company headquarters and manufacturing each contribute 35 points, with production confirmed in Ille-et-Vilaine, Brittany, at a facility operated by Société Fromagère de Retiers — a subsidiary of the Lactalis group. Distribution adds 15 points, proximity 5, and ingredients 10 — the maximum. No organic certification is held.

Double cream cheeses are defined by their high fat content, resulting from the addition of cream to the curd. Cœur Complice carries labels confirming French milk sourcing and Made in France status, alongside the Triman recycling information symbol. The Lactalis group is one of the world's largest dairy companies with its operational base in France, and its Breton subsidiary provides a well-established manufacturing platform for this Carrefour own-label product.

With a percentile of 75, this cheese outscores 75% of the 12 products in the double cream cheeses category — a strong result in a small but distinct segment. Achieving a top-quartile position in a specialist category with a retailer own-label product reflects the scoring advantage of confirmed Breton production, French milk sourcing, and a clean ingredient profile. For shoppers seeking a France-made double cream cheese with transparent manufacturing provenance within the Carrefour range, Cœur Complice is a well-documented and consistently positioned choice.
