the little story of a big biscuit factory

LA TRINITAINE is above all a story of exemplary success, the success of a family business that has managed to remain faithful to tradition and quality while leading their activity to an industrial level.

 

Biscuit factory La Trinitaine

 

1955 : Lucien PETIT, a confectioner in la TRINITE SUR MER, made hand rolled pastry "cigarettes" - Daily production : 80 kg.

1965 : Still in the town centre - Daily production : 600 kg per day.

1972 : his son Bernard, the current CEO of LA TRINITAINE, built a 2 200 m² factory on the SAINT PHILIBERT site, next to la TRINITE SUR MER.

2000 : Size of the factory 22 500 m².

  • 175 million francs turnover in 1998
  • Daily production : 80 tons of biscuits
  • More than 200 product references
  • 200 000 fresh eggs cracked/day.
  • 4 000 tons of flour/year
  • 3 000 tons of sugar/year
  • 1 500 tons of butter/year

 

These few figures are a witness to this remarkable progression and the place of choice occupied by LA TRINITAINE in the French confectionery industry.

 

From the selection of the ingredients that must be perfectly natural and of the highest quality, to the use of state-of-the-art technologies for the highly automated packaging, everything is implemented to preserve the original quality and authenticity, while satisfying current distribution standards.

 

Tradition and industrialisation… It's a daily challenge tackled by Bernard PETIT, his family and the 90 people working in the company, a challenge recompensed in 1986 when LA TRINITAINE received the Golden Laurels for quality and Tradition.

Throughout Brittany, France and the entire world, the products of BISCUITERIE LA TRINITAINE are appreciated for their flavour and authenticity, in the image of the region in which they are made…
