Since the second Empire, the butcher profession has been passing from father to son for 7 generations within the Bissonet family. Today they run 4 Boucherie Nivernaises shops, including their magnificient flagship store in Faubourg Saint-Honore street. They also provides Michelin-starred restaurants and Parisian luxury hotels, but they biggest pride is to be the purveyor of the Élysée palace (official residence of the French president) for more than 50 years.
Their strength lies in keeping their artisan spirit, defined by quality commitment, traditional know-how, respect and genuine passion of the product. They consider themselves like meat designer : ''We are not simple butchers, we are like goldsmiths. Our meat is meticulously sourced and selected. Then we work on it in a tailored way, because satisfaction in the plate is our priority.''
The Polmard butcher shop is run by Alexandre Polmard, a sixth-generation butcher whose lineage is famous for their quality meat offerings since 1846. The business truly distinguished itself in the 1990s when the family introduced a unique meat treatment called “hibernation”, and which revolutionized the process of “aging” beef.
The complex method—believed to retain the flavor, texture, and quality of the beef—begins with the company’s Blonde d’Aquitaine cattle (one of the most popular beef breeds in France), which are raised free-range on the Polmard family’s farm in Saint-Mihiel, France. Once butchered, the cuts of beef are dry aged then prepared for hibernation at the property’s on-site laboratory, where cold air is blown onto the meat at 120km/h in a -43 C setting. Unlike freezing, this allows meat to be kept for a purportedly indefinite amount of time with absolutely no loss of taste or tenderness.
The resulting beef has captured the taste buds and attention of renowned chefs across the globe, a select few of whom exclusively feature the beef on their menus, such as Chef Fabrice Vulin former Chef of Caprice restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel, Hong Kong.

''There is no good ham without good pigs'', this was the motto of Louis Ospital, a humble artisan from the Basque Country region in France, who opened his first deli meats store in 1971.
His exceptional cured meats come from an agreement with 2 pig farmers to breed their animals with an OGM free, antibiotic-free and cereals based wholesome nutrition, for 12 months minumum until they weigh at least 180kg. Then these hams are salted, equalised and put through a series of drying stages and aged for between 15 and 20 months.
Since late 2000, his son, Eric Ospital, took the helm of the family business, and despite the opportunity of increasing massively their production, he decided to favor a qualitative production. Indeed, after earning the trust of many chefs, such as Yves Camdeborde who brought his products in Fauchon outlets, Eric Ospital faced huge demand coming from NY to Tokyo, but he politely declined all the sollicitations in order not to forego the high quality requirements of their Ibaiama pork, which built their reputation.
Thus, we are very proud at Plantin Kaviari to be able to purvey their range of products with exclusive distribution.
