From the earth, to the earth: the yeast life cycle
At Lesaffre, we are fully dedicated to our mission of working together to better nourish and protect the planet. This promise not only applies to the methods and technology used to produce our range of products and services,; but also, to how we generate value and repurpose the derivative products from our industrial processes.
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.
