KOFF

Our story

A local craft, built to last.

Dressage soigné des Malakoffs KOFF, savoir-faire artisanal

Two chefs, one recipe

Originally from the Vaud Riviera and the Lausanne region, we both trained as chefs before continuing on toward the Swiss federal diploma (Brevet fédéral) in professional cooking. We met in a kitchen, and over the years we perfected our Malakoff recipe until it became a real signature dish at the establishments where we worked.

Today, we decided to go further and put our craft to work by creating KOFF. With the drive to start a business in our own region, to work alongside the restaurateurs around us, and above all to share a product close to our hearts, we chose to bring our recipe and our know-how to restaurant professionals.

Created by chefs, for chefs.

Because it's, above all, a product we deeply love: a product from our childhood, a product of the local terroir, Gruyère AOP. We've been making our malakoffs for many years and we know our product inside out. And every time someone tastes it, the reaction is the same: exceptional. So we asked ourselves: why not put this craft to work for restaurateurs, and for anyone else who wants it?

KOFF, the company, was founded in 2026 in the canton of Vaud, but our Malakoff recipe has been with us for much longer than that.

Our values

Local

Made in the canton of Vaud, for establishments across the region.

Artisanal

Careful, hands-on production, not anonymous industrial manufacturing.

Consistent

The same quality, order after order, so you can count on us.

Made in the canton of Vaud

We make our Gruyère AOP Malakoffs right here, in Switzerland, in the canton of Vaud: not imported, not outsourced elsewhere. That choice shapes everything: freshness, traceability, and the ability to stay close to our restaurateur clients.

Between Lavaux and the Vaud Riviera (Vevey, Montreux, Lausanne), we share the terroir and the culinary tradition of the winegrowers and restaurateurs who give the region its character, for a product that stays rooted in Swiss gastronomy rather than standardised.
