What LES INSPIRÉS does

LES INSPIRÉS (legal name Les Inspirés Traiteur, SIRET 51874689600027, NAF 5610A) is a French personal traiteur founded in 2010 in Agen, Nouvelle-Aquitaine and rebranded from its original Armandie Traiteur identity. The company operates from a 700 m2 facility at 337 rue de Bellile, Agen, which includes a 450 m2 laboratory and tasting room, and employs approximately 15 people under founder-owner Stéphane Rongiere. Its commercial offering is organized around three lines: full-service event catering for weddings, baptisms, anniversaries and family celebrations; corporate reception catering covering seminars, cocktails, team-building and business meals; and a transactional product line of meal boxes (Box Repas), cocktail/aperitif boxes (Box Cocktail/Box Apéro), daily menus (Menu du jour from €14.50 HT), salads (from €10.90 TTC) and poke bowls (€9.91 HT), distributed via an owned e-commerce storefront, partner retail points-of-sale (Cosy Coffee, Boulangerie L'Agenaise) and free local delivery over €50 in the Agen catchment.

The commercial model is sales-led and event-driven, with a dedicated team guiding clients from initial consultation through menu customization and full event execution, supported by a curated partner ecosystem of more than 15 château and estate venues plus complementary service providers (decoration, photography, equipment rental, florals, cake, wine). Named enterprise and institutional customers include the Boxers de Bordeaux (official caterer since 2017, 90,000+ dishes over nine seasons), Girondins de Bordeaux (since 2023), SUA LG rugby, Mairie d'Agen, Conseil départementale du Lot-et-Garonne, Citroën, Peugeot, Mercedes, UPSA, Colas, Vinci, Tupperware, Rougeline, Le Boiron, De Sangosse and Club de basket de Boulazac, alongside a private-event book of around 45 weddings for 2026. Service geography is concentrated in Lot-et-Garonne with extensions into Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Occitanie; positioning centers on local and seasonal sourcing, eco-responsible practices, dietary flexibility (vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free), and Mariages.net Wedding Awards 2022 recognition. The company is private, founder-owned, with no disclosed funding rounds, acquisitions, or AI/technology platform plays.
