Benjamin Tek: Tell us the story of France Bébé Nutrition?
Founded in 1993 as a French family-owned SME, France Bébé Nutrition started by delivering high-quality infant milk to regions like Asia and the Maghreb where access was limited. Leveraging nearly 20 years of global expertise, we launched in France in 2012. Our dedicated R&D team developed two groundbreaking ranges: Nébila®, the first palm oil-free infant milks available in France, and matilia®, innovative pleasure foods tailored for pregnancy and breastfeeding support. As the only company worldwide offering these products, we provide nutritional and functional solutions—the healthy, effective alternatives to medication for common pregnancy and breastfeeding discomforts.
Can you tell us more about your products?
We offer three specialized product lines:
matilia® exclusively for expectant and breastfeeding mothers, including anti-nausea biscuits, pregnancy milk drinks packed with essential minerals and vitamins, and breastfeeding smoothies with lactation-boosting plant extracts like ginger, fenugreek, anise, and barley. These address specific needs naturally while maintaining a pleasurable eating experience as a drug-free alternative.
We support babies with Nébila® infant milks, formulated for ages 0-3 without palm oil, enriched with bifidus, omega-3 (DHA), and omega-6 (ARA). Nébila® was the first palm oil-free milk brand in France.
Our organic line, France Bébé Bio®, launched in 2018, features healthy, gourmet diversification products from birth to 6 years, such as fruit purée pouches, plain rice cakes, mango-apple blends, and yogurt-topped options—with more to come.
What are your key commitments?
We prioritize 'made in France' healthy products with simple recipes. Our infant milks and pregnancy/breastfeeding drinks are produced exclusively in France. All products are natural, nutritional, and functional—pioneers in palm oil-free formulas, with none used today. In 2019 and beyond, we're expanding organic offerings: 100% organic, gluten-free, flavor-free essentials grown without chemicals or pesticides, meeting parents' demands for quality, practicality, and eco-friendliness.
Where can we find your products?
Shop our flavorful, natural products on our e-commerce site, in Grand-Ouest GMS networks and pharmacies, soon in GSS and GSA there too. We're also the trusted partner for over 100 nurseries in Northwest France.
