Président Crème gastronomique (spray/aerosol whipped cream)

Brand and product overview

Président Crème gastronomique in an aerosol (spray) format is a dairy whipped-cream product sold under the Président brand. Président is a long-established French dairy brand created by the Besnier family (Société Laitière Besnier) and launched in the late 1960s.

Manufacturing and origin

Président dairy products are principally manufactured in France and the Président range (creams, butters, cheeses) is commonly produced at Lactalis sites in France. Lactalis also produces Président-labelled items at regional facilities worldwide when serving export or local markets, so production may occur outside France depending on the SKU and country of sale.

Ownership and corporate structure

The Président brand is owned by the Lactalis Group (Groupe Lactalis), a French, family-owned multinational dairy company headquartered in Laval, France. Lactalis acquired and developed the Président portfolio following its creation by the Besnier family; the group now manages production and distribution through subsidiaries such as Lactalis Beurres et Crèmes (France) and Lactalis American Group (North America).

Practical note

The photographed can shows the French-language Président "Crème gastronomique" aerosol — packaging and regulatory labelling typically identify the exact production site and legal operator (often a Lactalis subsidiary). If you need the precise factory or country printed on that particular can, please upload a close-up photo of the product's small-print panel (lot code and "Fabriqué en / Made in" line) and I can read it and update the record.
