Before arriving at Gilly les Cîteaux, Mr and Mrs Delin ran a dairy in Marsannay-La-Côte. At the time, the milks used were collected all around the cheese dairy, in farms spread out in the villages around and near Dijon (21 Côte d'Or, Burgundy). In the 1970s , the expansion of production buildings was very rapid in 10 years. The first productions of fresh bottled milk and white cheeses were quickly supplemented by soft cheeses. 1980: A first shift is made and production is oriented more and more towards the production of cheeses enriched with cream, of the fresh and matured BRILLAT-SAVARIN type. The cheese factory then carried out the first tests of flavored Brillat-Savarin. 1990: Philippe Delin, son and 3rd child of the founders of the company, gradually takes over the cheese factory, managing 100% of the site from milk collection to shipments and production. The distribution was then more than 80% regional. The milks are collected from local producers located in Burgundy and Franche-Comté. This desire to monitor the quality of the raw material by having direct contact with the farms is a guarantee of the quality of the finished product. This requirement is still relevant today and the relationship between cheese dairy and farmers increasingly strong and important. 1996: Creation of the Régal de Bourgogne aux raisins, an innovative product still popular with customers today. Distributed at the very beginning in Belgium, France and now all over the world. Beginning of the 2000s: Huge investments in premises to improve production are made. These important investments for the sustainability of the production site made it possible to understand the major export markets such as CANADA and the USA. From 2003: Annual participation in the Concours Général Agricole de PARIS, BRILLAT-SAVARIN is awarded with medals every year, recognition of the profession and DELIN know-how. 2007 : Evolution très rapide des échanges avec le CANADA et les USA, le BRILLAT-SAVARIN est alors expédié avec un emballage innovant, une cloche à fromages individuelle permettant au fromage de s’affiner pendant le trajet maritime. 2014 : Un nouveau bâtiment de production sort de terre sur la même commune à l’entrée de Gilly les Cîteaux. Quelques chiffres clés : 4000m² de surface de production, 8.100.000 € d’investissements et l’amélioration des moyens de production.
