« Chargeurs:
a distinctive development model based
on operational efficiency and industrial value creation. »

After effectively consolidating our performance in 2015, we successfully deployed our “Performance, Discipline and Ambitions” plan in 2016.
Our operating profit outperformance was due to the success of the Chargeurs Business Standards, which bring strength and stability in a volatile economic environment, and the commitment of our 1,500 employees.

Chargeurs is constantly driving continuous improvement in performance, led by incremental and groundbreaking innovations closely aligned with customer needs, unrivaled talent management and sustained investment.

We expect to further this dynamic in 2017 by seizing new opportunities for organic growth and acquisitions, in order to maintain and strengthen our technological and operational leadership in our four businesses.
