THE FRENCH BARN - Lacanche Canada

Lacanche has chosen to stay true to its roots and tradition by continuing to manufacture exceptional ranges by hand, in the factory where it all started 200 years ago. This ensures that each range is built with the same quality and attention to detail it deserves. Each Lacanche range is carefully crafted using only the best materials, like enamel-coated cast-iron and solid brass burners, and shipped directly to your home. Our connection with Lacanche dates back from a long, long time ago... Patrick's family has lived in the village for generations. In the early 1920's his great-grandfather, Camille, was a worker at the Coste foundry, that would later become the Lacanche factory as we know it today. Later on, his grandfather Louis also joined the factory and was in charge of the enamel-coating process. In the late 1960's, his father Jean-Claude started his career in accounting in Lacanche. For a short time, three generations of Patrick's family worked at the factory at the same time, along with many cousins, uncles and friends. Patrick grew up minutes away from the factory, and his childhood was filled with stories about the "good old days" that he would be happy to share with you! Today, much of Patrick's family still works at the factory in Lacanche designing and building ranges, along with many of his friends and old soccer mates. The French Barn also offer a selection of high-end exceptional artisan-made copper cookware, silverware and knives imported exclusively from France and available across North America. www.french-barn.com www.lescouteliers.com
