“By bringing Derichebourg Multiservices to Elior Group, Derichebourg is increasing its stake in Elior Group and confirming its ambition to be a long-term reference shareholder. During its review of strategic options, Elior Group fully recognized the potential of Derichebourg Multiservices’ industrial project, as well as the quality of our teams and our assets.

I am convinced of the Group’s potential turnaround and the value creation resulting from this combination. I am very excited to lead Elior Group and to share my values and strategic vision with all employees in order to take the Group to a new phase of long-term growth and value creation.”
