About the owner: Sodiaal
Sodiaal is a cooperative headquartered in Paris, France, founded in 1964. Brandtree records 10 brands under its control.
Sodiaal is a French dairy cooperative owned by its farmer members, founded in 1964 when six dairy cooperatives merged (the Sodima, renamed Sodiaal in 1989). Its 2025 integrated report names Candia, Yoplait and Entremont as its flagship brands and says Yoplait became one hundred per cent cooperative outside the United States and Canada after a buyout, adding the Canadian business in 2025. In the United States Yoplait is a General Mills brand, and in Australia it is held by Bega, so Yoplait is recorded here as a separate territorial brand. Sodiaal also holds 49 per cent of the Coeur de Lion, Le Rustique and Richesmonts cheese brands with a partner; these are not listed here.
