Faire Face Formations

What Faire Face Formations does

Faire Face Formations is an Alsatian professional training company founded in 2012 by Grégory Aymé, headquartered in Mundolsheim (Grand Est, France). The firm delivers experiential training programs that integrate Krav-Maga, military-style bootcamp exercises, outdoor survival skills, and behavioral psychology to address workplace aggression, leadership development, and team cohesion. Its core product portfolio comprises five programs: Gestion des Risques (risk management training), Team Building Bootcamp, Team Building Survie (survival team building), Raid Nature (forest expeditions), and FF Leader (leadership via combat techniques), supplemented by add-on modules including self-defense workshops, PSC (Premiers Secours Citoyens) citizen first-aid training delivered in partnership with Secuformed, and RETEX (facilitated after-action review) debriefs.

The business operates a hybrid B2B/B2C model. Corporate training is delivered on-site at client premises across France and selectively internationally (Porto, Portugal), priced via quote with multi-year contract potential. Public workshops are offered on a per-person basis at €20–€75, covering self-defense, GSR (Gestion de Situations à Risques) full-day programs, and survival sessions. The core trainer team of three (Grégory Aymé, Sébastien Kubiak, Harald Moureau) is supplemented by external experts in justice, psychiatry, work psychology, and law enforcement. Total headcount is five employees. The company serves roughly 12–15 enterprise clients annually across banking, energy, telecommunications, public administration, healthcare/laboratory, cruise, education, social services, and food service.

Marketing is content-driven via the company website, blog (Actualités), Facebook, YouTube, and downloadable PDF brochures, with a Datadocké certification qualifying it for French professional training funding mechanisms. No external funding has been raised and no parent company is reported; growth to date has been funded organically. The firm operates from five+ dedicated sites across Alsace plus on-site enterprise delivery capability, and has begun extending its footprint nationally (Hauts-de-France) and internationally (Portugal).

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Others

• ManpowerGroup France: Large French workforce solutions and staffing provider that also offers corporate training services. Adjacent rather than directly competitive, but addresses the same enterprise HR/L&D buyer for soft-skills and workplace training.
• Krav Maga Global (KMG): International Krav-Maga training and certification organization. Shares the Krav-Maga methodology foundation with FFF (founder Aymé is a KMBR director) but focuses on self-defense instruction rather than corporate training.

Broad incumbents

• CNFCE: French professional training organization offering a broad catalog of B2B courses including management, HR, and safety. Comparable as a Datadocké-registered French training competitor but with a far broader and more commoditized catalog.
• Apave: Major French risk management, safety, and technical training organization. Overlaps with FFF's risk management (Gestion de risques) training offering, particularly for frontline staff safety, but operates at much larger scale.
• Cegos: Largest corporate training and professional development provider in France, offering a broad catalog including leadership and team effectiveness. Operates at significantly larger scale than FFF across all training categories.
• IFG Executive Education: French executive education and corporate training company with strong B2B focus on leadership development. Overlaps with FFF's FF Leader leadership offering but addresses a broader and more senior audience.

Direct peers

• Cohésion Internationale: French corporate team-building provider specializing in military-style challenges and adventure-based corporate events. Direct competitor to FFF in the French market with a very similar experiential/military methodology and enterprise client base.
• Outward Bound France: French branch of the global outdoor experiential learning organization, offering nature-based team building and leadership programs. Closely comparable to FFF's Raid Nature, Team Building Survie, and leadership development offerings.
