🎉 Celebrating the Success Story and Growth of BFR Systems in the U.S. Market! 🎉 We're thrilled to share the incredible journey of Charlotte Coulardeau, who just completed her 18-month V.I.E. program (Volontaire International en Entreprise) with BFR SYSTEMS, a leading French company specializing in turnkey solutions for the food processing industry. BFR Systems approached Altix in 2023, ready to take their first step into the U.S. market after years of exporting their equipment to North America through French customers equipping their production facilities. Seeing the huge potential of the U.S. food processing sector, they knew it was time to establish a direct presence—and they chose Charlotte to help lead the charge! In just 18 months, Charlotte: - Expanded BFR’s brand in the U.S., particularly in the cheese processing sector, - Identified and participated in key industry trade shows, learning which events brought the most value and how to maximize their impact, - Helped generate sales growth that met BFR’s ambitious objectives. Thanks to her efforts, BFR Systems is now poised to grow its U.S. presence, expand its local team, and introduce new product lines to the American market. As Charlotte heads back to France for the next three months to learn about BFR’s Snack and Sandwich solutions, we look forward to welcoming her back to the IMHub in February 2025, where she will take on a new role and continue driving growth for BFR in the U.S.! Congrats to Charlotte for her incredible success, and to BFR Systems for their strategic expansion into one of the world’s most competitive markets. We’re honored and excited to support BFR Systems in this endeavor! #bfrystems #USExpansion #VIE #InternationalBusiness #MarketGrowth #FoodProcessing #TradeShows #AltixIMHub #SuccessStory Jean-Claude VANDAIS Vincent LEFEBVRE Melanie BOUDE Business France North America Odyssey International Exchange Charlotte Guyot
