On February 23, 2017, the Rémy Cointreau Group added a new dynamic to its philanthropic policy by founding its eponymous Foundation.
7 years later, it has been given a makeover, confirming its commitment to its mission of supporting, enhancing and promoting the transmission of exceptional know-how, and has now become:
Fondation Rémy Cointreau pour la Transmission
In this way, it ensures coherence with the Group values that it embodies and defends.
This evolution goes hand in hand with an asserted raison d’être: Fondation Rémy Cointreau’s commitment is to promote artisans who embody and perpetuate French heritage by sharing their excellent knowledge and know-how. It encourages excellence in innovative and sustainable practices that favor local terroirs which strongly support and appreciate environmental issues.
Our Foundation is actively involved alongside the sector’s leading actors and stands at the heart of the craft industry, confirming that transmission is the guiding philosophy behind each of its actions.
As time gives its value to Cognac, the Foundation is enriched by the experience and expertise of its craftsmen. It stands as a true guardian of know-how, past, present, and future, and a long-term support for its current and upcoming laureates, faced with the many challenges of tomorrow.
Join us in this adventure and together we will continue to preserve the excellence of these know-how.
Thank you for your support and your shared passion for arts and crafts!
Bureau du Design, de la Mode et des Métiers d’Art, is an initiative of the city of Paris specialized in design, fashion and fine crafts. It organizes each year the Prizes Savoir-faire en transmission! Their call for applications is opened until October 31st, 2022.
This is in the 10th Arrondissement of Paris, Villa du Lavoir, that Anaïs Jarnoux, a furniture upholstery with a leatherwork specialty, introduces us to her world in Episode 4 of our video-portrait series on the Foundation's artisans.
