The story begins more than 170 years ago, in the south-west of France, in the Sarrade family...

The history of Sarrade from 1850 to today The terroir tradition of the South-West

The Sarrade story is first and foremost one of family and passion for the terroir of the South-West.

1891

Léon Sarrade follows in his father’s footsteps and takes the family business to the next level. Concentrating all his expertise on Foie Gras, Léon developed the first reduced-cooking Foies Gras, which are still part of the Sarrade range. Their reputation soon spread beyond the borders of the South-West, and Sarrade became an approved supplier to several European courts.

The development of the family business continued with Roger Sarrade, Jean-Eucher’s son, at the helm until 1997. Sarrade then joined the Maïsadour Cooperative Group, in the heart of the Landes region and close to duck breeders, to ensure total control of its supply chain.
