What Pact Europact does

Pact Europact SAS is a French decorative finishing company specializing in leather and textile embellishment for the luxury industry. Founded in 1982 as PAC (PIQUURE AUTOMATIQUE CHOLETAISE) in Cholet by the Baudry family, the company relocated to Maulévrier in 1987 and was acquired by HOFICA Group in 2006 under the leadership of Jean-Yves Papin. It now operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary within HOFICA's diversified leather and textile manufacturing group, alongside sister companies such as EVIDENCE, HOFICOUPE, MAROFICA, COSY Design, COSY Equipement, and ATELIER DOUESSIN.

The company offers five core finishing services — embroidery, silkscreen printing, digital printing, embossing, and digital cutting — under one roof, with 100% Made in France production. Technical capabilities include 30 embroidery machines capable of up to 12-color work on a single support, 5 silkscreen turnstiles (1–8 colors), 4 hot stamping machines, 1 high-frequency welding machine, 2 laser cutters, and 1 water jet cutter, plus an in-house R&D department and quality testing laboratory. Pact Europact employs approximately 90 people across two workshops (Edouard Colbert and Alexandre Marcel) in Maine-et-Loire.

Pact Europact generates revenue through custom B2B manufacturing services quoted on a project basis. Its primary customer segments are luxury leather goods brands, haute couture houses, and ready-to-wear fashion brands, with secondary segments in furniture/home furnishing, nautical equipment, and aerospace/leisure vehicles. Distribution is direct enterprise field sales with no public pricing; the company cultivates relationships through co-development with style offices, membership in Mode Grand Ouest and Réseau du Bellay, and a style office that produces four collections per year to inspire customers.
