THE OFFICIAL DAIRY “OF LIMOUSINS” SINCE 1942

Les Fayes was created in 1942 by Mr Thomas.

In 1964, the dairy was in full flow. Then the location has been selected and the dairy has been built. 3,3 millions liters of milk were processed.

In 1967, the dairy collected 23 millions liters of milk for 1.200 producers. The dairy produced fresh milk, butter, yogurt, fresh pasta and fresh cheese mould in ladle.

In 1976, the dairy increased its production capacity. In 1985, the dairy "Les Fayes" joined to create the "ULCPL" (Standing for Charente Poitou Limousin dairies union).

In 1990, after many new subscribers, the company renamed into Lescure Bougon.

In 1995, Lescure Bougon joined to the "GLAC" (standing for the merger between the cooperatives "Charentes Poitou dairies") and merges all its cooperatives. Within the specialization of the industrial sites, a UHT milk workshop has been created at the "Les Fayes" dairy.

In 2012, the 4 cooperatives and the 2 unions that are making up "le GLAC" decide to merge and to change their name. The cooperative is renamed "TERRA LACTA".

In 2015, TERRA LACTA hives off the "Les Fayes" dairy in order to enhance the actual ranges and to develop new products.

Since the beginning of its creation, "Les Fayes" produces natural, fresh and tasty products such as the whole Limousin French area.

Limousin’s dairy products are made according to the rules

Our local produce is divine.

In “Limousin”, all these conditions are met to produce an exceptional milk. Our cows live in an environment that bring to a high quality milk production. They have absolutely nothing to envy to the “Normand” cows; quite the opposite! The landforms, the geology, the forecast and the qualitative grass in abundance are the main ingredients of success.

Tradition is never far away…

At the “Les Fayes” dairy, we trust in the respect of raw materials. Our dairy farm, TERRA LACTA, collects the milk with the greatest care from farms of the Limousin area, which are partners of "Les Fayes". To preserve all the sensory qualities, our Fresh Cheese and our Faiselle are mould in ladles.

The taste is our priority.

At "Les Fayes" dairy, the taste is our highest concern. We never add proteins, preservatives or other additives that would disturb the natural quality of our milk. All our products are made in our dairy, in order to keep on with our traditions. We obtain premium, natural and tasty products.

L'atelier du Pain is an organic artisan bakery situated in the heart of Belgium. Here you only find bakers with a real passion for food and craftsmanship. Quality is priority. We are part of the group Le Pain Quotidien, for which we develop exclusive recipes. Today, our products are available far outside the Belgian borders. Depending on the needs of our customers, and the logistic possibilities, we deliver fresh or frozen products. Because consumers are always looking for variation, we anticipate on trends and seasons. Every season, we surprise our customers by offering creative solutions for bread, viennoiserie and patisserie. While l'Atelier du Pain is an artisan bakery, each bread is hand-made by real, passionate bakers, and therefor unique ! Most of our breads are prepared with only 4 ingredients : flour, water, salt and....time. Thanks to the long fermentation process lasting 8 tot 30 hours, the dough has enough time to develop a full flavour and structure. Because we also bake on stone, our organic breads - mostly made with sourdough and without preservatives - have a slightly acidic flavour. The process results in a bread that is more cripsy, stays fresh for a longer time and is easy to digest. Besides bread and baguettes, we also produce organic viennoiserie with real butter and other products like muffins, cake and savouries.
