Lur Berri is a cooperative food company in south west France, created in 1936.
In 1936, the wheat cooperative was founded. Until 1965, activity was focused on crop production in the Basque Country.
In 1971, the agricultural cooperative Lur Berri was born from a merger between grain cooperatives in the Basque Country and Lower Navarre.
From the 1980s, the cooperative grew quickly. It moved into livestock production (cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry) and acquired a number of cereal wholesalers: Bonnut, Garlin, Espoey, Artix, Clermont, and Coarraze-Nay. The group Lur Berri has been active in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, Landes, Hautes-Pyrénées, and most recently, the Tarn-et-Garonne.
Lur Berri's mission is to "assure our farmer partners the best value of their products".
