European Score analysis

Monoprix's Le Crémeux double cream cheese achieves a perfect score of 100, driven by maximum contributions from company headquarters and manufacturing at 35 points each, a full distribution score of 15, a proximity contribution of 5, and a full ingredients score of 10. No certifications are listed, leaving that component at zero. The product is manufactured in Brittany, at the Société Fromagère de Retiers, a subsidiary of the Lactalis Group based in Retiers, Ille-et-Vilaine.

The Breton manufacturing location reinforces the proximity score and reflects the strong dairy heritage of the region. No specific protected designation or organic certification is recorded, which places this product on a par with many other French-made double cream cheeses that compete primarily on provenance and production quality rather than third-party certification schemes.

With a percentile of 75, Le Crémeux outscores 75% of the 12 products assessed in the double cream cheeses category. This is a compact and specialised category, and achieving the upper quartile within it reflects a genuinely strong supply chain profile. For consumers seeking a French-made double cream cheese with fully domestic Breton production and reliable provenance, this Monoprix product offers a well-structured and coherent option within a premium segment.
