Sébastien Espaces Verts

What Sébastien Espaces Verts does

Sébastien Espaces Verts (SEVE) is a privately held French landscaping services company headquartered at 14 Rue du collège technique, Eysines (33320), in the Bordeaux metropolitan area. Founded in 2015 by Sébastien, who holds a BTSA in landscape planning, the company delivers two core services: Entretien d'espaces verts (green space maintenance, including mowing, pruning, clearing, and cleaning) and Création d'espaces verts (landscape creation, including planting, turfing, irrigation, fencing, terraces, and retaining walls). A third offering, Sev'Elag, operates as a dedicated tree-pruning (élagage) sub-brand launched in 2020 with its own microsite.

SEVE serves four primary customer segments: private individuals (personalized garden projects, ongoing maintenance), real estate developers (green-space installation for new residential and commercial builds), private companies (corporate park and office landscaping, with Decathlon as a named reference), and residential complexes/condominiums (recurring common-area maintenance). Named enterprise touchpoints also include the CHU Bordeaux employee-committee supplier catalog (Du Côté de Ma Ville). Service delivery is direct and sales-led, performed by an in-house team of 15 employees and apprentices using company-owned equipment across the Bordeaux metropolitan area and broader Gironde department. The firm also maintains sports and community sponsorships (Boxers de Bordeaux, Golf Pessac, US Chartrons) and is a member of UNEP (Les Entreprises du Paysage).

The business model combines annual recurring maintenance contracts with one-time project-based creation work and specialized tree-pruning services. Pricing is custom quote-based, not publicly disclosed, and varies by project scope, site conditions, and service frequency. SEVE is founder-owned with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or institutional investors. As of 2024, operations at both SEVE-EspacesVerts and SEVE-Elag were temporarily suspended due to Gironde prefecture-ordered evacuations in South Gironde.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Bartlett Tree Experts: Specialized tree care and arborist services company operating across North America. Directly comparable to SEVE's Sev'Elag division in core competency (pruning, arboriculture) while serving residential and commercial clients.
• Davey Tree Expert Co. Large North American provider of tree care, grounds maintenance, and landscape services. Comparable breadth across maintenance, creation, and arborist work, with similar client mix of residential, commercial, and institutional customers.
• Green Landscaping Group AB: Nordic-based full-service landscaping company providing grounds maintenance, landscape construction, and tree/arborist services. Closely mirrors SEVE's three-pronged offering (maintenance, creation, Sev'Elag-equivalent tree services) at a larger, listed-company scale.
• Idverde: Pan-European landscape services provider offering green space maintenance, landscape creation, and arborist services to public and private clients. Directly comparable business model across SEVE's three core service lines, though at vastly greater scale.

Broad incumbents

• Sodexo: Global facilities management and food services group that includes grounds and outdoor maintenance within its integrated facility services offerings. Overlaps with SEVE in serving enterprise customers with outsourced maintenance needs, though not specialized in landscaping.
• Veolia Environnement: Global environmental services group whose municipal and commercial landscaping/green space management offerings overlap with SEVE's services, but as part of a much broader water, waste, and energy portfolio rather than a dedicated landscaping specialist.
