Since 1958,
Cooking and Preserving
in the Heart of Provence
Culinary excellence
Since 1958, our goal has remained the same:
We aim at ensuring an outstanding taste and quality. Our commitment to selecting the finest raw materials, combined with the expertise of our chef and the technical skills of our production team, allows us to meet this challenge every day.
Across generations, tradition has passed on essential values to us, such as the pursuit of excellence, the consistency of quality, the quest for the finest ingredients, improvement through the knowledge of some and the experience of others. Marius Bernard still applies today these fundamental principles into its core areas of expertise: taste and gastronomy.
All our recipes are inspired by the richness and high standards of Provencal and Mediterranean traditions.
Perfect canning
No additives, no preservatives
Our canning process enables us to maintain our products without the need for additives or preservatives, ensuring a healthy and high-quality result.
An infinitely recyclable container
Our primary choice is recyclable glass jars, offering consumers the opportunity for reuse or repurposing.
