The Yenne Dairy Cooperative was founded in 1962 at the foot of the Dent du Chat mountain.
It collects milk daily from 50 farmers who care for their animals and the environment, located around the cooperative — more precisely in the heart of the Dent du Chat Massif, the Épine mountain range, and the area of the Lac d'Aiguebelette. The herds consist of local breeds: Tarine, Abondance, and Montbéliarde.
The variety of flora in the pastures of the Avant-Pays Savoyard (clover, dandelion, etc.) gives the cheeses their distinctive flavor.
A range of organic raw milk cheeses, guaranteed free of additives, preservatives, and synthetic chemical colorings, was launched in 1994. The cooperative includes six organic farms producing 2,200,000 liters of milk per year.
