Trained, motivated, responsive and stable employees
The increasing complexity of the world, the growing gap between people’s initial knowledge and the needs of daily practice, and the rapid evolution of knowledge mean that we need to constantly update and expand our knowledge in all fields.
High-performance logistics
Our subsidiaries may have one or more warehousing centers from which they ship customer orders in France, Europe and Africa. They guarantee their customers delivery times :
- 24/72 h for France.
- 2 to 6 days for foreign destinations.
- Sodeco Valves, based in Belgium, can deliver within 4 hours in its catchment area.
This implies :
- optimized inventory management to ensure “zero stock-outs”, an imperative requirement for our purchasing departments,
- agreements with reliable carriers.

In 2024, 2,221 new shareholders joined us and 2,137 left (perhaps temporarily…).
In 2024, we noted a slight decrease in the share held by active and retired employees. However, we are maintaining our target of 8.5% of capital held by these people by 2030.
