European Score analysis

Carrefour's Saint Félicien achieves a perfect score of 100, entirely on the strength of its French supply chain. Headquarters and manufacturing each contribute 35 points, ingredients 10, distribution 15, and proximity 5. No certification points are recorded.

Manufacturing is listed in the Dauphiné region of France, the traditional home of Saint Félicien cheese. The product carries a French milk label and a crème origine France designation, confirming domestic dairy sourcing. It also holds a Nutriscore grade D, indicating a relatively energy-dense nutritional profile typical of rich, creamy soft cheeses — a useful transparency signal for consumers, though it does not affect the provenance score.

At the 72nd percentile among 18 Saint Félicien products, this cheese outscores nearly three quarters of its category peers, placing it comfortably in the upper portion of the distribution. The combination of Dauphiné manufacturing heritage, confirmed French cream and milk origins, and a strong category percentile makes this a well-positioned product for shoppers interested in regionally rooted French soft cheeses. The absence of a protected designation means there is no formal quality scheme beyond the origin labelling, but the documented provenance is clear and consistent.
