Born to beer's passion
Two beer lovers. Two friends. Two food technologist engineers. .
Christophe Fresquet worked in the trade, he was a supermarket manager, then he was Regional Sales Manager for a large group that manufactures and sells cleaning and disinfection products for food industries. He now lives near Uzès.
Bertrand Salvignol worked in Vietnam, in England, in Thailand and in Italy for the food aid sector. He traveled to over 60 countries to setup various food factories. He remained very attached to his village, close to Uzès, where he know lives.
It is the combination of love of the product and the region which has convinced Christophe and Bertrand to established Meduz in the heart of Uzès.
Christophe is in charge of the sales. Bertrand is the brewmaster.
