Philibon celebrates 40 years of Guadeloupe melon this year

A family business, BOYER began producing melons in Moissac (Tarn-et-Garonne, Occitanie region) in 1957. In 1968, BOYER created the PHILIBON brand. To meet consumer demand, the company began producing and exporting melons from Guadeloupe (French West Indies) in 1984.

 

Today, over 200 hectares of melons are grown in the French West Indies, in Guadeloupe and Martinique. Production for export enables us to offer an early French melon not only in France, but also in Italy, Switzerland, Belgium and Holland.

 

PHILIBON is the brand of Boyer SAS, which makes it a point of honor to guarantee the exceptional quality of its fruit in every season. The brand is proud of its selection criteria for the best producers, with whom it establishes solid partnerships. Transparent cultivation methods, specific terroirs and fruit traceability all contribute to offering a product of excellence.
