Organization of governance

As a co-operative, our governance is based on the principle of one vote per person and on the threefold capacity of our members as partners, farmers and customers.

Modern, alternative governance

One year after the creation of the Eureden union, the founding cooperatives of Eureden (Triskalia and Cecab) merged on  January 1, 2021 , to give birth to a  single cooperative , with new governance .

As an agricultural cooperative, the governance of the Eureden Group is based on a Board of Directors composed of 28 farmers from the four Breton departments and representative of all agricultural production.

  • The group’s CEO is Alain Perrin (top left)
  • The President of the cooperative, elected by the Board of Directors, is Dany Rochefort, a farmer in Jugon-les-lacs in Côtes-d’Armor (top right)
  • Frédéric Conq, a farmer in Plouarzel in Finistère, is vice-president (bottom middle)

Territorial organization

The territorial organization of Eureden is based on 15 territorial sections and 25 local basins.

Everyone has their role:

  • The territorial section is the statutory base of proximity;
  • The local basin is dedicated to the animation of the territory. It is a place for initiatives and experimentation at the local level.

Cooperative trades

Our professions also structure the territory. Eureden counts :

7 sections specialised by production which are in charge of the cooperative’s trades:

  • Vegetables
  • Pork
  • eggs
  • Meat poultry
  • Cattle
  • Milk
  • Cereals

8 transversal commissions :

  • Sustainable agriculture
  • Organic sectors
  • Cooperative life and territories
  • Animal nutrition
  • Agricultural supplies
  • Finance
  • Communication
  • Installation/Transmission

These specialized sections and committees address all of the cooperative’s issues, whether they relate to our business lines or more cross-functional topics. They play an important role in the close relationship we seek to maintain with the cooperative’s members.

Overall, the cooperative has nearly 350 elected officials, administrators and section advisors representing the territories and professions.

The goal of this organization is to stay close to our 16,000 members.
