During a ceremony held at the Group’s headquarters, Louis LE DUFF was presented with the insignia of Commander of the Order of Agricultural Merit by Ms. Annie GENEVARD, Minister of Agriculture and Food Sovereignty.
The Minister personally traveled to Rennes to visit the BRIDOR factory in Servon-sur-Vilaine. She then proceeded to the Group’s headquarters for an official ceremony, marked by speeches from Maryvonne GUILLOU-LE DUFF, Annie GENEVARD, and Louis LE DUFF.
The event brought together nearly 200 guests, including employees, public officials, business leaders, and journalists. The evening concluded with a friendly cocktail reception hosted by two Meilleurs Ouvriers de France (Best Craftsmen of France): Laurent LE DANIEL, MOF pastry and confectionery chef, and Milan RADANOVIC, MOF delicatessen and catering expert. On this occasion, Laurent LE DANIEL created a chocolate replica of the medal presented to Louis LE DUFF.
This honor celebrates half a century of dedication to culinary quality, the promotion of French culinary expertise, and the passing down of that know-how.
Since founding Groupe LE DUFF, Louis LE DUFF has surrounded himself with the best—renowned chefs, Meilleurs Ouvriers de France, and scientific experts—to develop recipes that are both wholesome and delicious.
He is also the founder of the Rennes Culinary Academy, a respected training and research center, as well as the Louis LE DUFF Endowment Fund, which is dedicated to health, good nutrition, and the global promotion of French culinary craftsmanship.
