Moulin Calvet, a milling company based at the Moulin du Bousquet in Rignac, has announced a major investment program of €25 million over a decade. This initiative aims to upgrade its equipment and expand its range of flours and services for artisan bakers.
The investment plan includes the installation of a new wheat silo with a storage capacity of 3,000 tons, an optical sorter for grain preparation, modernization of the existing mill, and the implementation of a fully automated bagging line capable of processing 15 tons per hour. A new analysis laboratory and a 170 m² bakehouse complete this project.
These strategic improvements are intended to enhance the industrial facilities, improve control over manufacturing processes, and support the company's growth in its current and future markets.
Beyond producing conventional, organic, and Label Rouge flours, Moulin Calvet offers technical, commercial, and marketing support to bakers. The company also focuses on innovations to simplify bakery operations and meet evolving consumer demands, combining milling expertise with a commitment to quality and adaptable production methods. It participates in the Agri-Éthique, organic farming, and CRC (Controlled Red Label) initiatives.
From its Rignac site, Moulin Calvet, a historic company in the Pays Rignacois region, blends family heritage with industrial modernization. Its project highlights the capacity of local businesses to invest for their growth and adaptation to sector-specific challenges.
