CLAC
Food Processing
CLAC, the Local Artisan and Creative Canning Company, was founded in July 2017 and operates in Cournon d'Auvergne, France. It develops and cooks organic preserves from fresh ingredients harvested at full maturity, sourced from roughly fifteen partner farms and operations in the Auvergne region. The company works according to three principles: organic, local, and artisanal. It purchases so-called ugly vegetables and surplus production from local farmers at fair prices under annual contracts, an approach aimed at reducing food waste and supporting farm income. Its recipes include carrot mousse with Auvergne blue cheese and beetroot ketchup in the Auvergne style.
