Alain Milliat, a committed house

Alain-Milliat-une-maison-engagée Alain Milliat

We are directing our production process as much as possible towards more responsible measures, whether on a local or global scale, in order to be in line with the values that have defined the personality of Maison Alain Milliat since its creation.

We are not only Made in France, we also strive to be responsible in our sourcing. More than 50% of our fruit is French, and we prioritize local producers close to the workshop located in the heart of the French fruit-growing region. This is the case for our apples and pears from eco-responsible orchards, our grapes from an HVE (High Environmental Value Level IV) wine estate, and also for our peaches, apricots, grapes, and tomatoes.

For exotic fruits, consistency and reasoning prohibit us from shipping by plane because the carbon impact would be unacceptable. Juices and pulp are therefore extracted and frozen in fruit production areas, following Alain's recommendations for variety and ripeness. This organization allows us to process the fruit at the best time and also generates a local economy.

The design and management of processing equipment are organized with an increasingly responsible objective, thus reducing energy consumption and bottling in bottles made from 70% recycled glass. The consumption of cleaning water and its recycling are part of a rational plan, as is fruit waste, which is recycled and recovered locally.
