As a specialist in transport, logistics and urban distribution, Labatut is present in these 3 distinct sectors of activity thanks to its various subsidiaries: Veolog, which specialises in logistics, Vert chez vous for urban distribution, Labatut Transports and Labatut LVI for the transport and rental of industrial vehicles. In order to further enhance the know-how acquired over many years and with the aim of offering its customers global solutions in terms of Supply Chain, the company is redefining itself in order to group its branches under a single institution: Labatut Group. Each subsidiary will thus retain its own identity while benefiting from the group's synergies.
Labatut Group, a global Supply Chain solution
By redefining its identity, Labatut Group wishes to develop the synergy between all the services offered and thus provide a complete solution to its customers, from the product at the factory to its reception by the end consumer. Veolog, Vert chez Vous, Labatut Transports and LVI have enabled this family business, which has been developing for 4 generations of entrepreneurs since 1920, to gain experience and know-how in each of these branches. Labatut Group can now offer all its customers a complete suppy chain offer thanks to the many synergies set up in these different subsidiaries, while maintaining the quality of service that characterizes the company.
"We remain a company on a human scale and favour short circuits and a close relationship with our employees and customers to guarantee irreproachable quality. Today, we want to assert our place in the market and enter a new dynamic. We are and remain an ambitious SME that guarantees an ever more optimal service for each of its customers, in particular through à la carte solutions and controlled support for our processes," explains André Labatut, President of Labatut Group.
Ambitious development goals, both internal and external
After reaching a turnover of €49 million in 2013, Labatut Group has set itself a target of €100 million by 2017. To achieve this ambitious goal, Labatut Group is presenting numerous projects and intends to develop new know-how in niche sectors (events, e-commerce, etc.). External growth operations will accompany this strategy. At the same time, Labatut Group wishes to continue its internal development and further develop its market share in its support activities. The arrival of the new Chief Executive Officer, Jean-François Mounic, in January 2014 will support the development of this business model by deploying the human, technical and financial resources that will be necessary for this growth.
"The implementation of a new strategy will allow us to accelerate synergies between the divisions while maintaining the specific identity that has made the success of the group's companies. Our entire strategy is based on the fundamental values of our companies, namely a high commitment to service levels and the involvement of our employees in sharing these objectives," concludes Jean-François Mounic, Chief Executive Officer of Labatut Group.
