In the 1980s, agricultural production became heavily industrialized: egg production increasingly relied on battery cages (the hens are kept in small cages without daylight, laying eggs on automatic belts with constant light to accelerate production). When launching Cocorette in 1983 at Sainte Catherine-les-Arras (62), the founders wanted to return to traditional practices, by offering consumers quality eggs produced on the farm. Today, with its 53 employees at its headquarters, Cocorette distributes farm eggs under the Red Label (Label Rouge) and eggs from Organic Agriculture. The criteria of animal well-being and CSR were applied progressively since the launch of the enterprise and today form the basis of its development.
