The Boivin cheese factory is a family business founded in 1939 by Bernadette, Noël, Herman, Patrick, Antonio Boivin and their mother Marie Bluteau . They then acquire the cheese factory which belongs to their cousin Joseph Boivin , cheese inspector and great master cheese maker.
At the time, the cheese dairy was used to process surplus milk from the family farm and from surrounding farms. The market at the time was aging cheddar for export markets. The first Saguenay Lac St-Jean cheese factory was built on Chemin St-Joseph de la Baie and the current cheese factory has its origins. The company is now run with the same vision byPierre, Michel, Jean-Marc, Luc and Patricia Boivin of the third and fourth generation.
