Verdier manufacture: A family story, a protected heritage facing the future.
Established at the beginning of the XIXth century in Thiers – the French capital for cutlery from at least six centuries – our factory has perpetuated the know-how of master cutler craftsmen for more than 150 years. Thanks to a continuous human and technical commitment, we are able to create and innovate constantly, to produce customised items and to adapt ourselves for future needs, even as a subcontractor.
A unique factory that guarantees “100% made in France”
Thanks to its expertise in different domains, the VERDIER is proud to produce 100% made in France products. As a French company, it is not our wish but our obligation to work with local businesses in order to promote and support our economy.
The widest range of French cutlery products carried by our own brand names
Since 1859, date of our first trademark registration, six generations of cutlers have worked hard to propose one of the most remarkable ranges of French cutlery: professional and household knives, kitchen utensils, flatware and pocket knives.
Three brand names are now supporting the values of our French artisanal craftmanship:
- Our brand “Andre VERDIER” on behalf of our grandfather- is dedicated to the art of cooking, to traditional pocket knives and also to regional items, such as the well-known “Laguiole”.
- Our brands “SCOF” and “DELARBOULAS” are devoted to high class flatware, presented in various standard models or custom tailored for the customer’s needs.
On the other hand, our factory also owns other brands, which are focused on an industrial and French quality production.
Facing an overload of products with ambiguous origins, our strength relies on a 100% French manufacturing for all our production chains.
In 2012, VERDIER received the label of “Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant” (living heritage company) for the transmission and protection of ancient cutlery production techniques.
In 2013 and 2017, our factory received the label “Atelier d’Art de France” for its brands “SCOF” and “DELARBOULAS”: handcrafted high-class products made from different materials and techniques.
In 2014, the « Collège Culinaire de France » (the French culinary college) awarded our factory with the label “Artisan de qualité” (excellent craftsmen) that gave us the opportunity to create partnerships with well-known Chefs.
Verdier proposes traditional and innovative products that correspond to all the tastes, usages and budgets.
