Maison Crétet Miel de printemps France

Maison Crétet is a long-standing French family beekeeping enterprise, founded in 1948 by Maurice Crétet in Matha, Charente-Maritime. The brand has remained within the family for four generations, passing from Maurice to his son Albert, then to Jean-François, and currently involving Julien Crétet as a primary beekeeper and manager.

The product is harvested and packaged in France, specifically in the Charente-Maritime region (often in the commune of Le Gué-d'Alleré) and neighboring areas like Poitou-Charentes. The company prides itself on artisanal methods, moving from a small boutique to a production facility that supplies organic and natural honey both locally and internationally. As of the current period including 2026, the brand continues to be independently owned by the founding Crétet family through their primary business entity, Les Ruchers du Gué.
