The President's vision

Environmentally friendly production, a sense of community, a forward-looking approach, respect for our commitments and for people, a sense of responsibility, fairness, openness… are all part of Cofruid’Oc’s fundamental mindset. The values of our cooperative company are in line with the current expectations of society.

In order to give meaning and method, we rely on our responsible and social strategy, which is based on 6 essential axes for the sustainability of our farms and cooperative. This approach creates links between our growers, employees, partners and territory. It should contribute to a better recognition and understanding of our profession and its contribution to society.

It expresses our desire for a forward-looking Cofruid’Oc, which welcomes future generations, a Cofruid’Oc that is always seeking to improve! Growers and employees together will rise up to the challenges we face, by priding ourselves on our strong and meaningful ambition.

Jean Nougaillac,

President of Cofruid’Oc since 2013

Our story

Severe frost destroyed the vineyards of the Saint-Just community in 1956. Pioneers then imagined an alternative to wine growing: apple trees. These young men decided to join forces to store, package and sell their production by creating a cooperative. To find out what happened next, let us tell you our story in a video.
