D2n

What D2n does

D2N is a family-owned French agricultural trading company (négoce agricole) founded in 2007 and headquartered in Le Teilleul, Normandy. It serves crop and livestock farmers across five departments in northwestern France (Calvados, Ille-et-Vilaine, Manche, Mayenne, Orne) through a vertically integrated portfolio that includes cereal collection (43% of revenue), animal feed manufacturing and nutrition (21%), fertilizer production and packaging (19%), seed and plant protection commercialization (14%), and other products and services including digital tools (3%). The company operates regional proximity sites, a customer extranet, and LD Logistics — a wholly-owned logistics subsidiary running 14 QUALIMAT-certified truck units, 13 delivery trucks with onboard handling, and 9 liquid tankers, moving approximately 1,500 tonnes of goods per day.

The business model is sales-led and relationship-driven, executed through technico-commerciaux (technical sales representatives) who visit farms and provide advisory services, combined with direct on-farm delivery. Revenue is generated on a transactional/transaction-fee basis across physical commodity and input sales, with pricing custom-quoted per customer rather than publicly listed. A distinct technology layer sits on top of the trading business: five OAD (Outils d'Aide à la Décision) digital decision-support tools — OLYMPE SAT for satellite-based nitrogen management, KAIROS for maize silage harvest timing, HERBISECUR for weed-resistance detection, CROPWISE PROTECTOR for cereal disease forecasting, and HYGO for spray cycle tracking — alongside PERFARMER, a dynamic world-market-indexed cereal pricing service. D2N explicitly positions itself as a private alternative to large agricultural cooperatives, emphasizing reactivity, adaptability, and territorial expertise. Ownership is private with no disclosed external investors or parent company; no public revenue, funding, or M&A history is disclosed.

Core offering

D2N is a French agricultural trading company (négoce agricole) supplying farmers across five northwestern French departments with agricultural inputs, animal nutrition, cereal collection services, and digital decision-support tools (OAD). Its core activities include cereal collection (43% of revenue), manufacturing and packaging of fertilizers and soil amendments (19%), animal feed production (21%), seed and plant protection commercialization (14%), and digital precision agriculture tools such as satellite-based nitrogen management, weed-resistance diagnostics, harvest optimization, disease forecasting, and spraying cycle tracking.

Product overview

D2N operates as a local agricultural trading company offering a comprehensive portfolio organized across seven product categories: (1) OAD / Outils numériques — five digital decision-support tools (CROPWISE PROTECTOR, OLYMPE SAT, KAIROS, HERBISECUR, HYGO) that leverage satellite imagery, predictive modeling, and data analytics to optimize crop management; (2) Semences — over 100 seed varieties including maize, wheat, barley, rapeseed, oats, triticale, and cover/forage crops; (3) Fertilisants et amendements — fertilizer manufacturing and conditioning; (4) Alimentation et nutrition animale — bovine feed products and nutritional supplements for dairy and beef cattle; (5) Minéraux — mineral blocks and supplements for livestock; (6) Conservation des fourrages — forage conservation products including silage films, baler film, stretch film, nets, and additives; (7) Collecte céréales — cereal collection services with dynamic pricing options (PERFARMER, CONFORT+, ÉCHANGE CÉRÉALES/ALIMENT). The OAD digital tools form a distinct technology layer that differentiates D2N's offering, while the physical product categories serve as the core trading and manufacturing business.
