Innovation in the industry

Created in 1999, this association brings together groups working in the beef and sheep
farming industry (breeders, merchants, wholesalers, advisory bodies and l’Aria and l’Adiv….)
There are three main strands to its mission:

A centre for research and development

To support innovation by developing new meat products which give value to the name of Charolais beef and lamb. In order to achieve this, the association has at its disposal “une halle technologie*” at Charolles.  It is working with its partners l’ADIV (Association pour le développement de l’Institut des viandes)  et l’ARIA  (l’Association Régionale des Industries Alimentaires).  This mission is orientated towards small and medium enterprises within the food industry and meat producers who sell directly to the general public.
