La Biscuiterie nantaise (BN) is a French industrial biscuit factory, typical of the city of Nantes, which produces biscuits, in particular the commercial brand "choco BN".

The biscuit factory of Nantes was founded in 1896 in Nantes, in the district around Place François-II on the island of La Prairie-au-Duc (northwest of the current island of Nantes), by a group of local traders.
