5 Exhibitors to Visit at SIAL Paris 2026

Interprofession du Gruyère (IPG) is the collective governing body for Le Gruyère AOP and Le Gruyère d'Alpage AOP, headquartered in Gruyères, Switzerland. Founded in 1997, it unites the three sectors of the supply chain, milk producers, cheesemakers and refiners, under a single interprofessional structure that owns and manages the AOP designation and brand. Its two products are Swiss raw-milk hard cheeses produced without additives or technological auxiliaries, with milk processed within 24 hours of collection.

The IPG enforces one of the most detailed AOP specifications in European cheese, including a prohibition on silage feed and a ban on robotic or automatic milking, the latter based on Agroscope research into free-fatty-acid rancidity risk. In 2024 the designation produced 31,136 tonnes and sold 31,703 tonnes globally, with exports to the United States exceeding 4,000 tonnes for the first time, a record volume. Gruyère AOP also ranks among the top ten best-known brands in Switzerland.
