Our values
Cooperation and independence
Both internally and externally, with different yet complementary professions, the circulation of information, solidarity and a cooperative spirit are key to success. Fostering positive and constructive exchanges, being a reliable partner, building bridges between departments and activities, but also with other companies, is essential. In the sole interest of our breeders, it is just as essential to maintain our free will and use the agility allowed by the “human scale” of our structure.
