Les Frères Bernard
Throughout our 30 years of experience, we have developed modern and efficient production processes alongside traditional artisan methods. Our machines are designed to reduce repetitive gestures and avoid waste. Some of our cheeses are still moulded traditionally with a ladle and spoon. Every one of our authentic cheese recipes has stood the test of time since 1990. Even when we modernised our premises in 2018, authenticity was our priority.

We have committed to using 100% local Côte d’Opale milk since we created the dairy in the Hauts de France region. We work exclusively with milk producers within a 20km radius of the dairy and commit to paying them a fair price. Short supply chains are the future for the agri-food sector. They ensure traceability and reduce energy consumption and additional costs.
We also demand high quality milk that meets stringent specifications. In line with these standards, the farms where our milk is produced are a healthy environment for the herds where their welfare is respected.

Les Frères Bernard
One of our key priorities is limiting food waste throughout the whole process, from production to sales. To reduce waste, we had a machine specially designed to mould our cheeses. This reduces painful repetitive gestures for our employees and is a much faster way to mould with consistent curd from the beginning to the end of the process. No raw material is wasted during moulding. We also sell “reject” cheeses in our shop. They are cheeses that are rejected from production because they have not reached a specific weight or aren’t very presentable. In French, we call them “ugly cheeses”. But they are just as delicious and sold with a 50% discount! We also sell cheeses with a past or approaching Best Before Date on the Too Good To Go application. Since we’ve been selling on the app, we never throw away cheese that was ready for sale.
