New opportunities already under study in the PACA region
This transaction marks only a step in the long-term expansion plan driven by the leadership. The equity infusion raised in the first quarter was precisely aimed at equipping the company with the resources needed to swiftly seize opportunities in the Côte d’Azur market.
