Alma Group

What Alma Group does

ALMA Group is a French privately-held industrial holding company headquartered in Boissy Saint-Léger, France, founded in 1990 and operating across 40+ countries through approximately ten interconnected brands (ALMA, ALMA Services, Carbovac, Deliver Up, EIB, EMIR, EMIMA, Grizzli, Luveba and the A² Services joint venture). It supplies industrial and legal metrology instruments for liquids other than water (Flexicompt Autonome+, Gravicompt UNI-2, Turbine Adriane, CMA-Tronique, LPG-Tronique, CO2 Cryo-Tronique), vapor recovery units under CARBOVAC (Zephyr 32/64/128 plus a Marine variant), and a Deliver Up embedded-computing platform comprising Atlas Neo, SecuriWeb, Deliver Pay, Expert Mode+, ALMA Cloud Services and the IMPROVE BI dashboard. Products are MID/OIML R117 certified and address custody transfer, VOC emissions control and last-mile delivery digitalization. The group's customers are deposits and terminals (e.g., TotalEnergies, Rubis Terminal, DPA Ambes), fluid transporters (Picoty, LUR BERRI, Robine Trucks, Delivery Up deployments across many regional carriers) and service stations (Shell/Certas, Antargaz, Butagaz, Primagaz, Vitogaz, Bolloré Energy, Maisonneuve).

ALMA Group monetizes through four streams: industrial metrology equipment sales, maintenance/services and regulatory inspections (via ALMA Services, EIB, EMIR, EMIMA, Luveba), embedded IT solutions (Deliver Up tablet hardware, fleet software and ERP integration sold partly on subscription/recurring terms), and multi-brand spare parts. Pricing is quote-based B2B with no public disclosure. Distribution combines a direct enterprise field-sales team in France with an international network of distributors (PETROGAS in Latin America, SURTIDORES in Peru, RAWABI in Saudi Arabia, SEAL in Tanzania, FAUKO in Brazil, Grizzli Maroc, MCE in Congo) and regional service subsidiaries in French overseas territories and Africa. The group operates three core go-to-market motions: enterprise field sales, channel partners, and event-driven lead generation across industry trade shows such as SOLUTRANS, NAPEC, StocExpo, LPG Week and UNITI Expo.

The company is founder/CEO-led (Cédric Collomb), with 251–500 employees, a reported capital of €6,969,291, and no disclosed external institutional ownership. Recent strategic vectors include the 2025-08 merger of Grizzli France into Deliver Up (consolidating embedded computing), the 2025-10 A² Services joint venture with ARC NV for aviation fuel services, ongoing geographic expansion (Algeria subsidiary, Belgium for Deliver Up, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Tanzania, Brazil), and product extensions into biofuel metering (B100 on a container ship) and marine VOC recovery (first Marine VRU at TotalEnergies Donges). Certifications include MID, OIML R117, MASE, ICC, CyberVadis (862/1000, silver medal) and a Top 21% EcoVadis ranking (69/100, +11 points vs. November 2024).
