A FRENCH FLAGSHIP WITH A GLOBAL REACH
From its solid French base, Lactalis is pursuing international growth. The Group is present in 51 countries through 270 creameries and markets its products in 150 countries. Lactalis has developed firstly by consolidating its positions through an organic growth strategy, and secondly by expanding into new countries such as Uzbekistan in 2020 or the Netherlands in 2021.
