The history of the cooperative

SICA SA ALICOOP was created in 1988 as a result of the desire of the Deux Sévriennes cooperatives to develop a competitive animal feed industry.

These were then joined by the other cooperatives of Poitou-Charentes and Limousin; they were able to federate in ALICOOP for the interest of the breeders and contribute to the development of the regional agricultural heritage.

Under the impetus of its Board of Directors, its Founder President Pierre SOURISSEAU until July 2007, and his successor Philippe ROGEON, ALICOOP has always maintained a guiding principle:

Serve the interests of farmers,
Contribute to the development of regional animal production.
