The implementation of the restructuring plan in 2009 and 2010, including the reorganisation of competencies and the management team. The renegotiation of the company's debts and liabilities. The renegotiation of the contracts with the main partners, leading to the extension of business territories and the improvement in the trading margins across the whole business. The constant monitoring of the performances in the various departments of the business.After having returned the business to profitability at the end of 2010, we initialised and coordinated the process of disposal of the company, which was completed in November 2012.Up until the disposal, Stéphane ROUSSIER was Chairman of Board.
"At the helm of a business, Stéphane is a captain who is both demanding and disciplined, but also looks after his team members. Guided by results, he defines the course and remains on the bridge. For decision-making, Stéphane knows how to obtain assistance and to listen, and trusts his employees to act. His dynamism, commitment, availability and discipline enable him to successfully manage the challenges of the business, and particularly where it is confronted by difficulties".
