For over 30 years, Plein Sud has been creating gourmet recipes inspired by Mediterranean flavors. Specializing in prepared olives and antipasti, the company offers a wide range of products ready to enjoy as an aperitif or to use in cooking: marinated olives, prepared vegetables and original recipes combining oils, sauces and spices.
Founded in 1991 in the Nantes region with the brand "Les Plaisirs du Sud", the company has built itself around artisanal know-how and a true culture of taste.
In 2004, Bruno and Céline Beaumont took over Plein Sud with the ambition of continuing its development while preserving its identity and the quality of its products. The following year, they created the "Pépé Olivo" brand to embody a more modern, gourmet and convivial aperitif universe.
Today, Plein Sud remains a human-sized family SME made up of 6 people. All products are prepared and packaged by hand at the company's premises in Campbon, near Nantes, where a new factory was opened in 2011 to support business growth and increase production capacity.
The company combines traditional manufacturing techniques (manual preparation, brewing and packaging) with innovation in the creation of new flavors. Whether marketed under the "Pépé Olivo" brand (sachets and jars), or under the "Les Plaisirs du Sud" brand (fresh trays), all products benefit from the same level of requirement and attention at each stage of their manufacture.
Beyond its expertise, Plein Sud also distinguishes itself through its human commitment. For more than 15 years, the company has collaborated with the ESAT of Savenay and integrates workers with disabilities into its production team every week. This long-term partnership reflects strong values of solidarity and inclusion that are deeply rooted in the company's identity.
In 2026, Camille Beaumont, the daughter, joined the family adventure to continue the development of Plein Sud.
Choosing Plein Sud means trusting a reliable, committed family business that combines authenticity, innovation and close relationships with its partners. It also means offering customers generous, distinctive products driven by a strong human story.
