Fromagerie E. Graindorge is a renowned cheese dairy located in Livarot, in the heart of the Normandy region of France. Founded in 1910 by Eugène Graindorge, this family-run business has, over generations, become synonymous with the production of traditional Norman cheeses with Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status.


The dairy sources its milk exclusively from local producers, collecting it from around one hundred farms that raise Normande cows, known for their high-quality milk ideal for cheesemaking. Despite modernizing its operations, Graindorge remains committed to traditional production methods, preserving the authenticity and rich flavors of its cheeses.


Visitors can explore the "Village Fromager," an educational center featuring glass galleries that showcase every stage of cheese production, from milk reception to packaging. The tours include informative panels, video presentations, and interactive activities, and conclude with a cheese tasting in the on-site shop.
