Pamplie

The Dairy Cooperative of Pamplie was founded in 1905 by a few farmers in the small village of PAMPLIE, located in Deux Sevres Department, in the heart of Gatine a region well known for its dairy production.

The history and the development of the dairy cooperative are closely linked to its territory : the region was specialized in the cultivation of vines, when a large part of the vines had been devasted by the phylloxera crisis, at the end of the 19th of century, the farmers had to focus on new activities, such as the polyculture and above all the breeding of dairy cows. At the same time the Association of the Dairy Cooperatives from Charentes and Poitou join together and pool resources such as for the transport of the goods to Paris and to the big cities.
