In 1991, the manufacture of their corn feeder, “with a very precise dosage”, helped to strengthen the competitiveness of the French foie gras palmipede industry. A few years later, the various crises in the sector considerably weakened the value of the company. To continue its activity, Dussau Développement was able to count on its design office, created in 2009, and on a prototyping workshop. “The marriage of the two allows us to respond to specific requests, close to tailor-made,” underlines Franck Bacheré.
The creation of a design office was decisive in the development of the company.
