ILE DE FRANCE THE BRAND THAT MEANS FRENCH CHEESES

In tribute to the flagship brand that was the first, in 1936, to import our Camembert and Brie cheeses to the USA, Ile de France is the new umbrella brand for our French cheeses distributed internationally. The brand signs a range of French cheese classics, including Camembert, Brie, Roquefort and Comté, sold by BEO. As our specialist exporter of cheese to numerous destinations, BEO strives to meet its motto, Premium services for premium food, which the Ile de France brand echoes with its evocation of the art of living as practiced on board the legendary ocean liners.
