European Score analysis

Carrefour Bio's Saint-Félicien Moulé à la Louche is a ladle-moulded organic Saint-Félicien cheese produced in Dauphiné, near Saint-Just-de-Claix in the Isère department of France. Its European Score of 100 is composed of 35 points for company headquarters, 35 for manufacturing, 7 for ingredients, 15 for distribution, 5 for certifications, and 5 for proximity. The ingredients score of 7 is below the maximum, suggesting some inputs have a degree of non-European or uncertain origin, while the certifications component reaches its full 5 points through EU Organic and EU Agriculture labels.

Among 18 saint félicien cheeses, the product ranks at the 72nd percentile, outperforming 72% of the category. The ladle-moulding method described in the product name is a traditional artisan technique associated with authentic Saint-Félicien production in the Dauphiné region, adding craft credibility alongside the organic certification.

For a European-minded shopper, this product combines regional specificity with certified organic credentials and a well-known retail own-label brand. The Isère manufacturing location connects the cheese to its traditional geographical home. The French Agriculture and EU Agriculture labels reinforce the domestic sourcing orientation. Despite a slightly lower ingredients score, the overall profile is of a product firmly anchored in its region of origin, produced to certified organic standards, and distributed through a large French retailer.
