Bonne Maman preserves

Bonne Maman is a premier French brand world-renowned for its fruit preserves, jellies, and desserts. Established in 1971 by Jean Gervoson and Pierre Chapoulart in the small village of Biars-sur-Cère, the brand was designed to evoke a sense of traditional, homemade quality. This is famously reflected in its signature packaging, which features clear glass jars, handwritten-style typography, and iconic gingham-patterned ("Vichy") lids. The name itself, which translates to "Grandmother" or "Granny," reinforces the brand's commitment to simple, natural ingredients reminiscent of a family kitchen.

While the brand maintains a strong identity rooted in French culinary heritage, its production has expanded to meet global demand. Most preserves sold worldwide are still manufactured in the original region of Southwest France, specifically in Biars-sur-Cère. However, the brand's parent company operates facilities in other countries, such as the United States (Virginia) and Vietnam, to produce specific product lines or serve local markets efficiently. Ownership of the brand remains private through the Andros Group, a family-owned multinational giant that has led the business since its inception, ensuring that Bonne Maman continues to be a symbol of high-quality fruit processing on a global scale.
