What is Délifrance’s business?
The art of reconciling tradition and innovation, with local and global flavours
Our products are the fruit of traditional French know-how. That’s the meaning behind our Mission statement:
Innovation and quality are in our DNA. The size and quality of our range is a function of our baking tradition, our technological expertise and our ability to revisit and reinvent classic products: artisan-inspired viennoiseries, hand-crafted bread, puff pastry savoury snacks, and the great French patisserie classics.

With bakeries in France, Europe, and Asia, as well as an unparalleled commercial network, we have a presence on the ground near our customers.

Ever-popular French baking know-how
Our approach ? Naturalness and Sustainability...
As well as tradition and Authenticity, Convenience and Home baking. Life-styles are changing. People's diets are changing too. To meet new consumer expectations, in 2019 we launched our “Go Clean” Programme:: sustainable, simple recipes containing ingredients that everyone recognises, with less salt and sugar, and which are in line with current trends (vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, super foods, etc.)
The fight against food waste
We have been distributing products to various food banks, hospitals and schools for many years. To go a step further, we created our “No Waste, All Taste” programme. We asked chefs to create recipes to help customers recycle the previous day’s bread and viennoiserie products. In the same vein, we have established partnerships with the “Too Good to Go” application in France, Italy, and Belgium. Several hundred food baskets are saved every year thanks to this partnership… thereby preventing several thousand tonnes of CO2 emissions!
