Mission

The mission of La vieille fromagerie Perron is to keep the heritage value of its century old building, including its original tools, instrumentation and accessories. The cheese-dairy actively interprets and disseminates the artisanal technology of cheese- making. It becomes a regional showcase to the cheese producers in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, and promotes the Municipality of Saint-Prime under this same theme.

La vieille fromagerie Perron allows a participative experience as one will discover the history and the importance of the milk and cheese industry deeply-rooted in its community,in keeping with its values that are:

  • Respect of the history and the heritage of the old cheese-dairy as well as the cheese industry in Québec
  • Education and sharing
  • Belonging
  • Local partnership
  • Respectful, friendly and professional hospitality 
  • Safe service offers
