The Hardouin company has existed for a century and was then run by Amédée Guillon, a butcher of the very best reputation. André Hardouin Sr. started as chef de cuisine at Monsieur Guillon. After his death in 1936, Hardouin Sr. took over the company and carried on the tradition. The sausage products, especially the andouillette, quickly became known throughout the region. It is said that Hardouin was former French President Francois Mitterand's favorite butcher. In the mid-1950s, the two sons, Jacques and André Junior, joined the company and continued to expand the company by adding the catering area, among other things. Unfortunately none of the Hardouin brothers' children were willing to continue the family business and so in 2003 the business was finally taken over by Julien Garnier, a young local entrepreneur. Production will continue to be managed by the responsible employees, some of whom have worked for Hardouin for over 20 years. Together with Virginie Morand, Julien Garnier is carefully modernizing the company and, above all, ensures a fresher appearance, which is intended to appeal to a younger clientele. However, the traditional recipes remain - because Hardouin is justifiably proud of them. At Hardouin, only French meat is processed, most of which also comes from the region. In this way, the distances can be kept short and due to the proximity to the producers and breeders, a consistently high quality can be guaranteed.

In addition to classic charcuterie, Hardouin's second mainstay is the catering business. The catering offer consists of 100% products made in-house, which not only applies to sausage and meat products, but also to pasta such as bread, pasta, etc.
