BLÉO, ARTISANAL PASTA IN CHARENTE-MARITIME

Production from local durum wheat

The Bléo company is located in Charente-Maritime and is dedicated to transforming durum wheat into artisanal pasta. The wheat is grown on the farm, harvested in July and then stored in suitable conditions before processing. This approach allows for complete control of production, from wheat cultivation to the development of finished products.

A traditional stone milling process

Bléo durum wheat is transformed into flour using a stone mill. This slow and respectful method preserves the nutritional and aromatic qualities of the grain. The flour obtained forms the basis of Bléo pasta, 100% made from wheat grown on the farm. The use of this artisanal process is part of a logic of promoting traditional know-how applied to food production.

Pasta in various shapes

Bléo pasta comes in several shapes, allowing it to adapt to everyone's cooking habits and preferences. It is meticulously crafted, from dough preparation to drying, to ensure a texture suited to cooking. These different varieties can be used with simple everyday dishes as well as more elaborate recipes. Each range is designed with the same high standards, prioritizing the quality of raw materials sourced directly from the farm.

An artisanal and local approach

The production of Bléo artisanal pasta is based on a short supply chain approach. The wheat is grown locally, processed on-site, and offered for sale at various distribution points throughout the region. This organization promotes transparency and proximity to consumers. It also promotes agriculture rooted in its territory, where processing is carried out without unnecessary intermediaries.

Accessible points of sale

Bléo pasta is available in various points of sale in Charente-Maritime, whether in local shops, at markets or via distributors specializing in local products. This regional distribution allows residents and visitors to easily find these products and discover agricultural production enhanced by processing.
