L.D.C. SA
 PROFILE
If dinner will be Coq au Vin or Poulet au Vinagre, L.D.C. has the bird you'll need to start with. As the leading poultry producer and processor in France, the company offers fresh poultry under such brands as Loué and Poulet de Bresse. Its prepared poultry is sold under the Le Gaulois and La Toque Angevine brands. The company also produces ready-made meals, pizzas, and delicatessen meats. Acquisitions have added more prepared foods. International expansion includes L.D.C.'s purchase of Poland's top poultry processor, as well as operations in China and Spain. The Lambert and Chancereul families (including chairman Gérard Chancereul) gave L.D.C. its "L" and "C", respectively, and own nearly 70% of its stock.
