History

At the start of the 20th century, Beaujeu still had three mills and people regularly brought nut kernels to be pressed into oil.

The Huilerie Beaujolaise has been using the new production tool in the Ardillats region, since 2007; but by no means has the Beaujeu mill simply become a museum. It operates during the made-to-order season and is used to make virgin peanut oil.
