What Yanet does
Yanet is a family-owned French facility services company (SARL) founded in 1977 and headquartered in Saint-Herblain, in the Nantes metropolitan area of Pays de la Loire. The company operates through two sites — Yanet Nantes and Yanet Littoral (Pornichet, opened 2017) — delivering integrated building care to B2B clients including residential condominiums, property management firms, commercial real estate, medical offices, daycare centers, and social housing operators.
The company's offering spans five service lines: core cleaning and maintenance (Agent d'entretien) delivered by 370+ field agents; specialized periodic cleaning (carpet shampooing, high-reach window cleaning, high-pressure washing, clearance); multi-trade building maintenance (plumbing, electrical, carpentry, painting, small repairs); interior renovation (painting, wallpapering, kitchen and bathroom work, flooring, partitions); and green space management. Field operations are supported by a fleet of 260 service vehicles, professional equipment (including UNGER pure water cleaning systems and CERTIPHYTO-certified phytosanitary capabilities), and a "flying agent" team (9 agents plus tutors and apprentices) that provides absence coverage. The 35-agent occasional services team produces 1,225 hours of work per week.
Yanet's revenue model is professional services with quote-based, contractually negotiated pricing — no publicly disclosed rates. The company sells exclusively through direct field service delivery with no intermediary channels, targeting enterprise and mid-market clients primarily in Loire-Atlantique and the Atlantic littoral. Strategic positioning emphasizes a people-first, family-business culture with daytime work schedules, eco-labeled products, and CSR commitments (Planet RSE score 650/1000 in 2022), alongside community engagement through local sports sponsorships and inclusion programs targeting refugees, unqualified youth, and people with disabilities.
