Once upon a time…

The development of a maize chain in the Limagne of Auvergne began in 1983 with the construction of the corn mill. Based on the fact unfavorable to the remoteness of the Limagne compared to consumption centers, it became strategic for the Group to develop the processing of maize grain produced on site to market products with higher added value. In 1989, corn milling that is spun off as part of a new company, MCT (Maïs Céréales Technologies). From there came the brand mct, we know. The idea is then to go further in the processing of maize. By combining genetics, breeding and collection, Limagrain lays the foundation stones of a singular chain in Europe, very attractive to our customers who contractualizes each year more than 8 000 ha of maize grain Limagne.
