It is by practicing certified farming methods, which
go far beyond industry standards, that duBreton can offer the best pork
available. A tasty meat that respects consumers’ values.
Our Story
At the Leading Edge Since 1944
Farmers since 1928, Napoléon Breton and his wife, Adrienne, decided to
build a business in their image. In 1944, they bought the general store
in Saint-Bernard. Three generations later, through investments and
acquisitions, duBreton has become the company it is today. Specializing
in the production and processing of organic pork, it operates four
processing plants, including one in the United States, two feed mills,
and several farms in Eastern Canada. We are proud to connect farmers to
consumers who value sustainability and animal welfare.
Our values
Our daily actions are based on four core values
Teamwork. It’s in our nature. Everyone has a place in the team and is responsible for what they do.
Innovation. It’s been at the center of our lives since 1944. We don’t accept the status quo.
Excellence. Always do your best. No compromise.
Sustainability. Socially, economically, and environmentally, we make responsible choices to last.
We believe that transparency
is the best guarantee of trust. Each certification that we have chosen
to adhere to is verified annually by an independent auditor who audits
our facilities, equipment, processes, and methods.
