As main products, the SME offers nebulisation solutions for the fresh products sections of food stores. Fresh products are mainly fruits and vegetables, sea food, meat and cheese. Compliant with the current international standards and certifications, nebulisation is a technological innovation that fragments water via a piezoelectric system to create an extremely fine mist. This allows supermarkets to make sure products are preserved under the right temperature and humidity conditions.
The company was created in 1998 in southern France with its first nebulisation solutions patented in 1994. The SME became the world leader in customised solutions aiming at better promoting and managing fresh products sections in supermarkets whilst reducing food waste.
The company has a strong innovative component based on a design office and an R&D center that are conducting tailor-made studies for the cold chain of each client. The SME registered 27 patents and 9 designs with its solutions.
The SME is constantly innovating in the design and installation of tailor-made solutions for the smart management and promotion of fresh products' sections in supermarkets. It therefore offers cooling plates, fresh herb modules and refrigerated palox.
The SME has currently more than 4500 active clients which are mainly food supermarkets and hypermarkets. These clients are served by 100 employees with 40 dedicated experts. The SME expanded internationally over time since it has two subsidiaries: one in North America and another in the Pacific region. It is also present in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Tunisia, Russia, Chile, Canada and Benelux. In the EU countries, the company already has direct clients. Nevertheless, serving them from France does limit the expansion of these clients and the acquisition of new ones. The maintenance services are also limited when the company does not have a subsidiary.
In this context, the company is interested to find a partner responsible for both the distribution and the maintenance of the products for the existing clients but also for new ones. The company would give priority to the EU markets where it is already selling, such as Italy, Spain, Portugal, Benelux. The company would be interested in a partner which is already considered as furniture or service providers for fresh product sections in supermarkets. The objective is to sign a distribution services agreement with all partners.
