By placing the new Responsible Entrepreneur model at the heart of its Culture, the Groupe Savencia aims to pass on its humanist values to its employees and encourage each and every one of them to make a daily commitment to shaping sustainable growth together. Find out why we've made this the central theme of the 2024 edition of the Savencia Fromage & Dairy Annual Report.
Being a Responsible Entrepreneur means first and foremost achieving solid results, demonstrating the resilience of the specialty cheese model, the strength of its brands, the commitment of its teams and the complementary nature of its activities.
In 2024, Savencia Fromage & Dairy is :
- The world's 13th largest dairy group and 5th largest cheese group.
- A presence in over 120 countries.
- 7.1 billion euros in net sales.
- + 3.1% organic growth.
- 232.3 million euros Current operating income (+9.1% vs 2023).

Being a Responsible Entrepreneur also means taking a global approach to performance, going well beyond economic criteria alone, by integrating its financial and extra-financial dimensions. It means taking this dual dimension into account on a daily basis, at every level of the company, and embedding it in the decision-making of every Savencia Fromage & Dairy employee.
This model is expressed in :
