What Pomelo does

Pomelo Factory is a Paris-based creative video production agency incorporated in 2019 as a Société par Actions Simplifiée (S.A.S.) and led by founder Simon Cohen. The company operates as a one-stop video production partner offering six integrated service pillars: motion design, digital advertising, corporate films, customer testimonials, live event capture and streaming, and international reportage, supported by a content strategy and advisory layer. The technical stack combines human-directed creative production with AI-assisted tools for multilingual voice-over generation, pre-editing drafts, multi-format and multi-language adaptations, animated avatars, and interactive videos, all under human creative supervision. A distinguishing structural asset is the company's curated network of 500+ tested local videographers across 50+ countries, which enables global production with local execution, alongside a standardized 5-week delivery methodology and a single point-of-contact service model.

The firm pursues a sales-led go-to-market with quote-based direct sales through its website (Typeform intake, Calendly booking, free 30-minute expert exchanges, 24-hour quote turnaround), supplemented by regional offices in Lyon, Toulouse, Bordeaux, and Rennes serving French enterprise clients in their respective macro-regions. Pricing follows a per-project professional services model starting at 4,000 EUR HT, with custom quotes tailored to project complexity, shooting days, and post-production requirements. Customer segments span B2B and B2C advertisers (primary), other agencies seeking production overflow, and regional enterprises across France, with named logos including AWS, Qonto, SNCF, SAP, La Poste/Docaposte, GRDF, EY France, Bultex, Magellan Partners, Lydia, ArcaScience, and Storistes de France. Quantified client-side outcomes include campaigns generating 1M-2M+ views, 50% CPM reductions, and libraries of 100+ HR videos for multi-year engagements.

Pomelo is an independent, founder-owned company with EUR 1,000 share capital, no disclosed external funding, no parent entity, and no subsidiaries. Cumulative operating scale includes 200+ customers served and 500+ audiovisual content pieces produced since 2019, with a brand reputation indicated by 4.9/5 Google reviews and a regional French office footprint in five cities. Marketing channels combine SEO, an editorial blog, organic social (LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok), email newsletters, and case-study-driven demand generation. The agency has historically positioned itself as a creative partner rather than a software platform, and exposes no public API, SDK, or proprietary data assets.
