HUILERIE AVERNOISE
Food Processing
Huilerie Avernoise is a family-run oil mill on a farm in Avernes, in the Vexin français area northwest of the Paris basin, operating since 1750. Oils are obtained by first cold pressing, using seeds grown on the farm, except for sesame, nigella and pumpkin seeds. Products carry the designation Produits du Parc naturel régional du Vexin Français, reflecting an environmentally respectful approach applied from cultivation through processing. The mill supplies only within France. Its oils have received repeated recognition at the AVPA competition, including a 2009 Gourmet d'Or for exceptional cultivated products and later awards for rapeseed, roasted sesame and sunflower oils.
