Our Heritage

The history of Savencia Fromage & Dairy began in France in 1956 with "Caprice des Dieux" - a soft ripened cheese that revolutionized the market. Today, Savencia is one of the leading cheese and dairy companies, and a leader in high-quality chocolate specialties, fine meats and fish products.

Savencia Cheese USA story began in the early ‘70’s when the renowned French cheese maker Jean-Noel Bongrain decided it was time to bring his passion and skill for French specialty cheese to the States.

In 1974, Alouette Spreadable Cheese was born and has grown to become the leader in soft spreadable cheese.

Today, Savencia Cheese USA has 3 manufacturing locations across the United States and is an importer of a carefully selected portfolio of France’s finest specialty cheeses.
