The largest European producer in a growing market since the early 2000s, the company accounts for 55 % of French hemp and 30 % of European hemp (3 rd producing area in the world after Asia and North America). Mastery of the know-how from culture to the first transformation. A nearby laboratory (FRD) to carry out R&D work on plant fibre applications. Cooperative status: allows you to have a long-term vision with farmers. Construction of a new hemp defibration unit, hemp fibre packaging and hemp fibre manufacturing unit will enable LCDA to guarantee and optimise: •Employment with the initial creation of 5 jobs, •The doubling of production capacity, •The organisation of upstream production with the increase in the area dedicated to hemp, •The ability of the company to conduct tests on new product ranges with higher added value, henceforth having niches for testing and having the credibility necessary to meet orders from industrialists, •The attractiveness of the territory with the desire of Chanvrière to be a full player in the formation of a European hemp pole in the municipality of Saint Lyé — place of the new location.
