What Doregrill does
Doregrill (legal entity DORÉGRILL SAS) is a French private limited company founded in 1950 and registered as a SAS in 1963, headquartered and manufacturing in Sautron, France, with €320,000 registered capital and 11-50 employees. The company designs, manufactures, and services professional rotisserie ovens for food service operators and retail chains, and maintains a documented installed base of more than 80,000 rotisseries worldwide through its after-sales service operation. Doregrill holds Origine France Garantie certification (Bureau Veritas) for French design and manufacturing.
The core product portfolio spans basket-roast rotisseries (IDéal, D-Box, D-One, Sensup, Steambox, Néogrill, Déco, Nantaise), spit-roast rotisseries (Mag, Magflam, Ginox, SOLID), combined cooking-and-display units (D-Box Marchand, Sensup Marchand, Néobox, Néol), and a full range of heated, neutral, and chilled display cases, complemented by the DAY-FOOD modular snacking concept and captive consumables (Décagrill, Déca-one). Technology differentiation rests on proprietary automated systems: iCleanControl closed-circuit steam self-cleaning, SmartCookingFunction combining ventilated hot air with infrared browning, and IRegulControl for cooking program and energy management; the IDéal flagship adds touchscreen control, core temperature probes, and on-screen diagnostics. A 3D product configurator (configurateur.doregrill.com) supports online configuration and lead capture.
Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time hardware sales of rotisserie ovens and display cases, recurring spare parts and consumables (48-hour global dispatch), and after-sales service including on-site maintenance with documented 25-year service relationships. Pricing is quote-based with no public disclosure. Distribution combines a direct enterprise sales force, a published distribution network, and international trade-show presence (Sirha, Host Milano, Euroshop, NRA, NAFEM, IBIE, Equip Hotel, IRFS NY); named enterprise anchors include Franprix (700+ stores since 2012) and Carrefour (2021 co-development partnership). Documented international installations extend across Europe, Australia, the UK, Belgium, and China.
