What Kandbaz does

Kandbaz (legal name KANDBAZ, SIRET 497 933 408) is a privately held French business domiciliation company headquartered at 1 Rue de Stockholm, 75008 Paris, operating under prefectoral approvals DOM2025097 and DOM2025098. Its core service is the rental of prestigious registered business addresses (si\u00e8ge social) across a network of 101 addresses in 47 cities in France and overseas territories, enabling entrepreneurs, auto-entrepreneurs, TPE/PME, and associations to meet legal incorporation and administrative requirements without leasing physical office space. The company claims to have served more than 100,000 entrepreneurs.

The platform is built on a cloud-based SaaS architecture exposed via web and native iOS/Android applications (myKandbaz), with fully digital contract signing enabling onboarding in approximately three minutes. Add-on modules include mail reception and sorting, PDF digitization (available within 48 hours), mail forwarding, professional phone numbers with telephone answering, temporary and permanent office/meeting room rental, company formation assistance (SAS, SASU, EURL, SARL, SCI), and legal assistance for statutory modifications. An AI assistant named Kozmo is embedded in the mobile app for conversational support. The company operates on a subscription-dominant revenue model with monthly fees ranging from €19-€49 per address depending on city, supplemented by one-time professional service fees and unit-priced ancillary charges (e.g., €9 for Kbis retrieval, €2 for non-preferred payment methods).

Go-to-market is primarily product-led growth via the self-serve website and mobile apps, supported by an inside sales team reachable by phone, email, and chat. Distribution channels include partner referrals (Legalstart for company creation, Club Entrepreneurs de Dauphine), event presence (Salon SME, Vivatech, Salon des Entrepreneurs), and earned media coverage (BFM TV, Le Figaro, Forbes, Salesforce customer story). Leadership includes President Christophe Godeau and Editorial Director J\u00e9r\u00f4me Winterholer; Kandbaz is a member of Synaphe (the French domiciliation industry association) and chairs its Domiciliation Commission. The company received undisclosed growth financing from ISAI Growth Lending in 2022.
