The Evançon Cooperative gathers milk from seven Aostan municipalities and turns it into cheese: the municipalities are Montjovet, Champdepraz, Verrès, Issogne, Challand-Saint-Victor, Challand-Saint-Anselme and Arnad.
The cows, who are fed naturally, are raised in a traditional way: over the summer they go to high pastures, and during the winter they are fed hay and strictly non-GMO products.
Cheese production begins within two hours of milking; the milk is then subjected to strict controls which affect every phase of the work, up to the finished product, so as to guarantee a genuine, top quality product. With Fontina, the process rigorously respects the DOP (Registered Denomination of Origin) regulations.
The main products of the cheese factory are:
- Seasoned cheese - Fontina DOP, Chateau d'Arnad, Toma in various combinations of ageing and herbs, Gressoney Toma, Bleu d'Aoste
- Fresh cheese - Ricotta, Salignon, natural Tomino and Tomino with herbs, Robiola, Caciotta, Scamorza, Mousse with herbs, Butter
- Fresh and seasoned goat cheese
- Fresh, pasteurised milk
- Natural and fruit yoghurts

The company strong point is that it produces genuine products at an affordable price.
