APROSELA (Association for the Promotion of Artisanal Salt) was created in 1990 following work by the salt industry to improve the quality of artisanal sea salt from the Guérande basin. The association contributed, with the operators of the salt industry, to obtaining the Label Rouge for artisanal sea salt in 1991, the first official sign of quality and origin obtained for salt.
