D'Artagnan is a specialty food company founded in 1985 by Ariane Daguin, daughter of renowned French chef Andre Daguin, and George Faison. The company pioneered the market for humanely raised, sustainable meats and artisan charcuterie in the United States, starting with foie gras and expanding to encompass a comprehensive range of premium proteins and gourmet foods.
The company offers a curated selection of organic and free-range poultry, grass-fed beef, heritage breed pork, wild game, foie gras, pate, sausages, smoked meats, and truffles. D'Artagnan works with a network of small family farms that adhere to strict standards for animal welfare, sustainable agriculture, and antibiotic-free raising practices. The company was one of the first in the US to prioritize these standards decades before they became mainstream consumer concerns.
D'Artagnan's products are used by many of America's finest restaurants and are available to consumers through the company's online store, with nationwide shipping in insulated packaging. The company also offers prepared meals, charcuterie boards, and curated gift collections. D'Artagnan has played a significant role in shaping the American market for specialty and sustainable meats, and Ariane Daguin is widely recognized as a pioneer in the sustainable food movement.
