What JRI does
JRI is a French connected-monitoring specialist that designs, manufactures, and operates an IoT platform-plus-hardware stack for temperature, humidity, and multi-parameter environmental surveillance. Founded in 1845 and headquartered in Fesches-le-Châtel, France, the company operates as a subsidiary of Groupe MMS and serves more than 15,000 customers across four verticals: healthcare and pharmaceutical (hospitals, laboratories, blood banks, pharma manufacturers), food service and agro-industry (restaurants, food processing, HACCP-regulated operations), transport and logistics (cold-chain parcel and vehicle monitoring), and other industrial segments (building management, museums, archives). Its technology core is the JRI MySirius cloud platform, which aggregates data from a proprietary portfolio of wireless data loggers (Nova SPY, Nano SPY, LoRa SPY, Liberty SPY, Verigo) and digital probes, and exposes modular applications for connectivity (API), equipment localization, fleet maintenance, calibration metrology, enclosure characterization, mobile equipment monitoring, and HACCP compliance (MyFoodCheck).
The platform integrates with MODBUS instruments via the OpenBox gateway and supports TMS integration for logistics customers. JRI monetizes through three streams: one-time hardware sales of data loggers, sensors, gateways, and indicators; recurring SaaS subscriptions to the JRI MySirius platform; and professional services including installation, qualification, technical support, and Cofrac-accredited laboratory and on-site calibration. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year enterprise contracts, and the go-to-market is sales-led via direct enterprise field sales supported by trade show presence (Forum LABO, CFIA, Solutrans, Global Industrie), content marketing (case studies, FAQ), and partnership distribution (notably DayMark in North American food service). Notable customers include McDonald's France, APHP (Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris), Eurofins, Pierre Fabre, EFS (Établissement Français du Sang), Heppner, Elior, Transgourmet, Biosite, and Cell&Co, indicating material exposure to both large regulated enterprises and government accounts. The company is led by Thierry Vayssette (Chairman, Managing Director & CEO).
