The French Cheese Club is a business development and marketing firm in the US made up of six family owned French dairies, which specialize in the production of traditional French cheeses.
Mission
The French Cheese Club focuses on endorsing and promoting quality, expanding international markets and facilitating the export of our products. We work with the entire supply chain, from producer to exporter, importer, retailer and customer.
We believe that quality product is inherently tied to its terroir and tradition: the personalities of our cheeses give life to our land and villages. Cheese making is a deeply rooted tradition: there are numerous historical references to the production and gastronomic interest of our cheeses. We believe that sharing our products with cheese lovers worldwide transcends time and place and brings you to the heart of French cheese making culture.
Quality Guaranteed and Certified
We produce over 50,000,000 pounds of cheese every year. We comply with good farming and foodstuff practices (ISO, IFS or BRC). We believe that everyone is connected: from the milk producer to the exporter. We value the importance of each role through the supply chain in order to ensure the highest quality product reaches your table. All our cheeses are growth hormone (rBST) and anti-biotic free.
Cheeses that comply with INOA requirements have the privilege of using the Protected Designation of Origin (previously AOC). Look for this symbol on European cheeses to ensure quality standards.

The French Cheese Club offers the following services to U.S. importers, distributors, supermarkets and specialty food stores. Our Ambassadrice’s mission is to work closely at the trade, press and consumer levels.
