Commitment
Cooperation as a modus operandi
Cooperation between the teams at our three member cooperatives is part of our shared agenda; cooperation that’s embedded in our governance and in our Passion du Lait® commitments.
A shared agenda
On our establishment in 2009, it was decided to bring together all the milk collection, processing and marketing activities under a single umbrella organisation with the same raison d’être and sharing the same values.

Shared governance
In line with the cooperative agenda, we are governed by a two-person team - a president and a CEO who operate on behalf of the members and staff.
Strategic decisions are taken by the Board of Directors, which comprises nine milk-producer members (three from each cooperative). The decisions they make are implemented by the Steering Committee"
A joint committee
Topics discussed by the Board of Directors, such as the types of CSR work involved in Passion du Lait® upstream, are prepared by the Upstream Committee, comprising three elected milk producers - one from each cooperative, the three heads of the dairy production services at the cooperatives, the Director General of Laïta and other staff members.
