Our supply chain

At Lesaffre, our supply chain relies on our global presence and local expertise to provide our customers with the best products and services possible. With sites spread across the planet, we can guarantee proximity; however, if the nearest site is unable to deliver a specific product by a specific time, our system can make exceptions by optimizing production, routing and shipping.
