EMMENTAL Râpé - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Carrefour Classic's EMMENTAL Râpé achieves a European Score of 100 and places at the 54th percentile within the grated emmentaler category, outscoring 54% of the 76 products assessed there. The breakdown shows company headquarters and manufacturing each contributing 35 points, with manufacturing located in France and milk origin declared as French. Distribution adds 15 points and proximity contributes 5, whilst certifications sit at 0 and ingredients achieve a full 10.

The product carries several informative labels: French milk origin, Made in France, fed without GMOs, vegetarian, and Nutriscore Grade D. The GMO-free feed declaration is particularly relevant for dairy consumers concerned about the composition of animal feed in conventional farming. For a European-minded shopper, this product offers a transparent and fully domestic supply chain: French milk processed into grated emmental in France under a major French retailer's own label. The absence of organic or equivalent certification differentiates it from the Carrefour Bio variant reviewed elsewhere in this batch, which carries EU Organic and AB certifications. This confirms that in the grated emmentaler category, organic certification does not automatically translate into a higher category rank — structural provenance factors carry comparable weight. At the 54th percentile, both products sit in the same position, reflecting a competitive mid-category landscape where provenance and certification balance each other closely.
