New administrative buildings for Plastimo
Based in Lorient since its creation in 1963, Plastimo is no longer present in the boating and yachting market. Installed in the Lorient La Base area, it is having new administrative buildings built in 2020. The work has begun with the destruction of the old building in December 2019. " The new building is scheduled for delivery in July 2020. With a surface area of approximately 800 m² composed solely of offices, it will house the administrative and marketing support functions and the design office "explains Yann Cornec, General Manager of Plastimo.
Reaffirming Plastimo's presence in Lorient
The company has been based in the Morbihan town since its creation, and wanted to show its attachment to the Breton port. The operation will also improve the working conditions of the employees, who are currently working in old premises near the submarine cells. " We were pioneers in the installation of submarines on the base. The others, which have arrived since, have more modern buildings. We are thus reaffirming our presence in Lorient, with a recent building that is better insulated and more in keeping with the brand's image. It was a project that our staff had been waiting for, and it shows that we are able to live well here "says Yann Cornec.
Accompany the growth of the company
The new building will allow the company to plan for the coming years. While the current headquarters has 650 square meters, the new one will cover 800 square meters, which is almost 30% more space. " All departments can grow. It is a project that accompanies Plastimo's current dynamics with the capacity to absorb the company's growth, whether organic or external. As a reminder, we were 60 people when Alliance Marine bought us in 2012 and we are now a hundred employees "says the general manager.
