What LAMY does

Groupe Lamy SA is a French family-owned industrial holding company founded in 1830 in Caen, now headquartered in Rueil-Malmaison and led by CEO Martin Lamy, with the Lamy family remaining the sole shareholder in its sixth generation. The Group operates approximately 250 employees and reports annual turnover of €80M with €60M in own funds and an average €4M annual investment, deploying a diversified portfolio across three core verticals and several minority participations.

The three operating pillars are: (1) Energy Services, delivered through Viria (heating, air conditioning, ventilation, and energy management for 2,500+ co-owned properties in Normandy, including wood-fired heating networks, solar heating on 50 buildings, and biogas cogeneration), Viria Home Solutions (HVAC/plumbing installation for individual homeowners), and Daligault (electrical installations including photovoltaic and EV charging); (2) Raw Materials, via SFCC (international trading of carbon products such as petroleum coke, coal coke, anthracite, and metals like copper shot and iron pellets for industrial centrifugation and recarburisation customers) and SACAB (sand extraction and marketing in Normandy with 1,300,000 tonnes per year production capacity serving construction, industry, leisure, and mass distribution); and (3) Transport & Logistics, through SCRC (investment in railway carriages and tank containers) and MCM (ISO tank container fleet management for chemical, petroleum, and food industry liquids, gases, and powders).

Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring managed services contracts (energy services and HVAC maintenance), commodity transaction fees (raw materials trading and sand sales), and asset-based logistics fees (railway carriage and tank container leasing). The Group holds minority equity in Advanced Track & Trace SA (150 patents in 50+ countries for authentication, identification, and traceability), Hôtel Panache and Hôtel Bienvenue (Paris hospitality via Touriste Group), and afforestation programmes in Brazil and Uruguay. The customer base is horizontally diversified across residential co-owners, industrial processors, construction, and international transport operators, with no public pricing available given the B2B contract-based model.
